Product Overview
Magtech .44 Special FMJ is straightforward range ammunition for practice and plinking. The 240gr full metal jacket at 722 fps produces gentle recoil that new shooters find comfortable. At 278 ft-lbs, this load has enough power to cycle actions and ring steel without excessive blast.
The FMJ bullet runs cleaner than exposed lead alternatives, leaving less fouling in the barrel and cylinder. This makes it a better choice for indoor ranges that restrict lead projectiles. The heavy bullet weight provides good feedback on trigger control and sight alignment during practice sessions.
Budget-minded shooters will appreciate the lower cost per round compared to defensive ammunition. The brass cases are reloadable for those who want to reduce costs further. This load works in any .44 Special or .44 Magnum revolver, making it useful for shooters who want light practice in their magnum guns.
