Commercial Load for S&W 2nd Model HE

I had my .44 Spl S&W 2nd Model HE out to the range today using 200 gr RNFP from Miwall. Even using a rest I was all over the target (at least I was hitting it). Any recommendations on a commerical load for it since I don't reload.
 
Try the Remington 200gr. lead semi-wadcutter. It's "punchy" (around 1,000 fps from a 6" barrel), and I've found it very accurate in three .44 Special revolvers so far. A good round for either target work or self-defence, IMHO.
 
I think Federal still makes their 200 grain lead HP. I had good luck with their .45 Colt equivalent, and suspect this .44 Special load would do well by you. It seems to have a pretty good track record in defense shootings, too.
