I have reloaded for a few years now, and one of my favortie rifles to reload for is my Marlin 444. I have developed some good hunting loads with modern jackted bullets, but I have several good "plinking loads" with plain old lead bullets.
So my question comes down to Hunting with lead bullets. Does any one still do this? Do they work well? What kind of hardness should I be looking for? If it turns up that lead bullets are still good for hunting, I will be using them for hogs and deer under 100 yards.
