44 Magnum - Range The .44 Magnum is a splendid short-range big game cartridge in a various short, handy rifles, especially in heavy brush or timber, out to about 150 meters. Past that, the trajectory is too steep for easy hits on game, as the short, fat bullets have poor aerodynamic shape. Still, many shooters like it as they can thus have a rifle and a handgun in the same cartridge, making logistics easier. It is popular in rifles within these limitations for big game. It will also work well for coyotes and animals in that class, though it is rather expensive for that purpose versus lesser cartridges. Many handloaders will load lighter than factory loadings for other purposes and for target shooting.

What is the maximum effective range for 44 magnum?

A 44 magnum typically can kill a deer up to 200 yards. The sheer weight of the bullet, however, can allow the 44 magnum to reach even farther but this would require much practice firing. Compensations would need to be made to reach such distances by raising the angle of trajectory, maintaining a firm grip, pointed/heavy bullets, and practice, practice, practice. Hope this helps.
