For hunting with my 77/44 and the Marlin .44 lever, I have settled on the same load that I use for the 629s. 23.5 grains of H110/W296 under a 240gr XTP or Nosler JSP/JHP set off with a Winchester Large Pistol Primer. The Winchester LP primers are designated of magnum or standard loads. If I don't have the Winchesters I use a LP Magnum primer. For plinkin and range use I'll knock the down to 23gr.
