These cartridges come with the comforts of modern ammunition including smokeless powder, non-corrosive Boxer primers, and brass cases. However, they do use non-jacketed lead bullets. Not all ranges (particularly indoor ones) allow lead-nosed ammo, so check before ordering if you intend to shoot indoors,
The 44-40 was Winchester's first centerfire cartridge and saw use in both revolvers and long guns from 1873 onwards. Although superseded by newer designs for many uses, it remains a popular target shooting and deer hunting round. The 225 grain bullet is a modern phenomenon designed specifically for cowboy action shooting; historically, a 200 grain projectile was more common.
