Looking to pick up a new 1894 sbl in 44mag for my son as a deer and hog gun. How the accuracy on these new Ruger made guns? I haven't seen much online about it. I have a ton of 44 brass and would reload for it. I know they aren't bolt gun accurate, but I'd probably be ok with a 2 moa gun.

Unknown on the .44 but the SBL in .357 was running at 1.2" at 50 with a red dot and PMC 158 grain soft points.

Mine is very accurate, I also reload and used a 200 grain Hornady XTP and H110. I’ll be trying the 240 grain bullets next.

I shot a doe this year and the bullet performed pretty good and she dropped on the spot.

The orange circle targets are 1”.
