I was just searching online deals for 44mag bullets and notice a .429 and .430. upon searching google i found a few very short threads saying you can use a .430 bullet for 44mag but i just wanted to confirm with you guys that its okay because i seen several boxes said 444marlin. i get inconsistencies with my 44mag handi rifle so i figured i would try the .430 if its safe to see if it will shoot consistent. Ive noticed that if the gun is dirty it will shoot 5 shots almost touching at 75yards but run a brush or patches and they open up.
