About 44 Special Ammunition
The .44 Special was introduced in the early 20th century as an improvement over the older .44 Russian cartridge. Known for its manageable recoil and versatility, the .44 Special is still widely used in revolvers for self-defense, target shooting, and hunting. The cartridge also served as the parent cartridge for the popular .44 Magnum.Types of 44 Special Loadings
- Full Metal Jacket (FMJ): Like the name suggests, these types of loadings feature projectiles which are adorned with metal jacketing. This jacket is generally made of copper and will cover the tip and sides of the projectile. Typically, the base of the projectile is left uncoated.These types of loadings are well-suited for range use and are some of the most common types of ammo one will encounter.
- Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP): JHP loadings feature hollow point projectiles which are adorned with a full metal jacket. These loadings are generally found in the form of defensive ammo offerings and are designed to facilitate reliable expansion upon impact. Additionally, these types of loadings are designed to achieve adequate levels of penetration for defensive purposes while not over penetrating the target and risking collateral damage. A good hollow point loading is one that achieves an appropriate level of penetration while expanding reliably upon impact within the target.
- Lead Round Nose Flat Point (LRNFP): LRNFP loadings feature a flat-nosed, round lead projectile, ensuring safe use in tubular magazines. These are effective for hunting and target shooting.
