Notes: Lever-action carbine, ~50 m; shares ammo with .44 Panther Magnum.

How to Use the Moradi Model 1894

• Pick the load by the animal’s class first, then by shot angle: expanding loads (soft-point, hollow-point) for broadside shots, penetrating loads (polymer-tip, FMJ) for quartering and frontal shots or animals at the top of the class band.
• Aim for the heart and lungs just behind the front leg. A clean lung or heart shot passes the harvest check and keeps trophy integrity.
• Zero your scope for the distances you actually shoot on that reserve, and use the rangefinder before long shots.
• Shoot from a rest or prone when you can; it steadies the reticle far more than standing.
• Big game: it reaches class 8, so it can stop dangerous animals. Keep a follow-up shot ready on bears, big cats and buffalo.
