Buffalo Bore builds this Low Recoil .44 Remington Magnum load (part no. 4E20) around a 255-grain gas-checked hard cast bullet for shooters who want full-power penetration without the punishing recoil of a magnum-pressure loading. Buffalo Bore designed it specifically for lighter revolvers like the S&W Model 329PD, though it runs safely in any firearm chambered in .44 Magnum. The lighter bullet still falls well under SAAMI pressure specs while retaining the deep-penetrating performance the .44 Magnum is known for on big game. In handgun ammunition from Buffalo Bore Ammunition, this is the low-recoil answer for a magnum revolver.

Key Specifications
