What is a magnum bullet?

Strictly speaking, it would be a magnum CARTRIDGE- bullet is the part of the cartridge that comes out of the muzzle. In champagne and wine, a magnum is a larger thna normal bottle. The term was borrowed by the firearms industry to indicate a larger, more powerful cartridge. Thus you have the .44 Special, and it's big bother, the .44 Magnum.


Can a 45 colt revolver fire a 44 magnum bullet?

No. If it will even fit (the rim of a 44 magnum cartridge is much larger than a 45 Colt) it would be very dangerous to do. 45 Colt firearms were not designed for the forces of a 44 Magnum cartridge.


How many grains of powder in a 44 magnum bullet?

BULLETS are the metal projectile- the thing that comes out of the barrel- and contain no powder. The entire round of ammo is a CARTRIDGE (case, primer, powder, bullet). And there is no one answer for a .44 magnum cartridge- powder charge will vary, depending on WHICH powder is used, and which weight of bullet.


What is the difference between caliber and magnum?

Caliber refers to the size of the bullet in the cartridge, or the size of bullet the gun is designed to fire. Magnum refers to a cartridge with a higher level of pressure/powder than another one similar to it. For example: a .44 magnum has a longer casing and more powder than a .44 special.

Not safely. Despite the tales you have heard about this, the pressures of a .44 Magnum are well above the design pressure of a .410. WHEN (not if) the gun fails, someone is going to be hurt. No. Don't.

Which is stronger a 44 mag or a 375 mag?

375 H&H Mag is a rifle meant for African Safaris. It shoots 270 to 300 grain bullets at 2200 to 2700 feet per second. This is twice as fast, or four times the energy, of 44 magnum with similar bullet weights, which is after all a pistol cartridge, even though used in some rifles. If by some chance you meant 357 magnum and mistyped, that will be about two-thirds of the power of the 44 magnum.
