Howdy folks - New member here. Picked up a Winchester 1892 Octagon Deluxe in .44 magnum and it is shipping out tomorrow.

Looking forward to tapping into this pool of knowledge.

Welcome to the fire.

I have a couple rifles in .44 magnum. While I like the nostalgia and fun of 44-40, the 44 magnum is a whole lot easier. Especially if you intend to shoot in volume. It makes a great rifle cartridge IMO.

Careful of our 'pool of knowledge' ..... sometimes it gets a little 'deep'... :D

If I only could have one levergun though, it would probably be a 44 Mag, only a Marlin most likely.

Good luck! Have fun with the .44 Magnum. I shoot more .44s than just about anything.

Thanks all.

To answer my location - I am in Bothell, Washington.

I also am planning on doing a lot of hand loading, which is new to me. These forums have been a great help in gather what limited supplies I can.

I grew up in Adams County .. over east of the mountains ... near Lind. Great country for long range pistol work.
