Template:Infobox ammunition
The .44 magnum round is a type of ammunition in Fallout: New Vegas.
Characteristics
A high powered cartridge load derived from the .44 special pistol round. The round was originally developed for revolvers, but manufacturers quickly developed rifles and carbines chambered in .44 magnum. Ancient as it is, .44 magnum still delivers quite a punch and proves to be quite effective in the field.

Ingredients
Standard .44 rounds can be crafted at a reloading bench once the player has a Repair skill of 50. A single round requires the following ingredients:
Breakdown
Breaking down a .44 round requires 50 Repair, and yields:
Variants
.44 magnum round, hollow point
Hollow point bullets mushroom and break up on impact, causing massive trauma on fleshy, unarmored targets. However, this also means they break up when they hit things like armor plate, drastically reducing the weapon's penetrating power.
.44 magnum round, SWC (hand load)
Known as a semi-wadcutter, this round has a flat-nosed bullet designed to punch clean, neat holes in paper targets. The shape also causes the bullet to expand slightly on impact, though it is not nearly as effective as a hollowpoint on fleshy targets. The bullet also retains effectiveness against hard targets, and coupled with a heavier powder load, demonstrates good armor penetration. These characteristics make it much more effective than standard ball ammunition.
Schematics for making these rounds can be obtained from Jules after passing a check for Guns (50) and Survival (60); the recipe is also unlocked if the player takes the Hand Loader perk.
Ingredients
.44 SWC rounds can be crafted at a reloading bench once the player has a Repair skill of 75, in addition to the schematics, regardless of how they were obtained. A single round requires the following ingredients:
.44 special round
A less-powerful caliber of ammunition with physical dimensions similar enough to be used in guns chambered for the .44 magnum caliber. These rounds used to be the rarest type of .44 caliber ammunition in the game, with a single box appearing in only one location: the NCR Ranger Safehouse. As of patch 1.3.0.452 they have been added to vendor lists.
