.444 vrs. 45-70
I can only speak for the 45-70, using a 1970's era Marlin 1895. I have taken about 20 PA. whitetails using a 300 grain flat nose hollow point over 54 grains of 3031. Most never took more than a step or two. Not for shots over 150 yards or so, but we're talking about a great woods gun here!
