A: Thanks for reaching out Richard! I may be misreading Magnum Research's recommended ammo list, but this ammo (product # 44A) does indeed appear on it: https://www.magnumresearch.com/PDF/DE-Rec-Ammo-List.pdf. I do not have firsthand experience firing this ammo in a Desert Eagle. Magtech recorded its 1617 fps muzzle velocity with an 8.3" barrel. Based solely on that, I presume a Desert Eagle's 6" barrel would necessarily deliver a lower MV. I regret that there is no way I could accurately predict what kind of MV you could expect from your Desert Eagle, but I expect you could anticipate satisfactory performance given Magnum Research's official endorsement.

A: Yes sir! The semi-jacketed soft point delivers the terminal expansion you would want for defensive applications.

A: Thanks for reaching out Junior! This ammo would teach any black bear a serious lesson in etiquette. But if you're more concerned about grizzly, then I must recommend a 300-325gr hard cast bullet (which I regret that we haven't currently got in stock). You really need a deep-penetrating projectile if you want to access a grizzly's off switch.

A: Thanks for reaching out Richard! Sounds like you have a Ruger Model 44. If so, then this ammo should function correctly for you. Really, just so long as your firearm is indeed chambered for 44 Mag then you should be all set with this standard-pressure ammo.

A: Hello Teeter, Yes these rounds will work well in your lever action rifle chambered in the .44 Mag.
