Marbles Game Getter 44 shot shells

[Elk Hunter]

Anyone ever loaded 44 shot shells for the Marbles Game Getter?

I have a 1908 Game Getter that I would like to shoot just for fun. Years ago I made up some shot shells for it but didn't write down the recipe for them, or least I can't find it, and I can't find where I put the shells to see if I put the load information in the box.

I have a few original loads and I'm going to break one down to see what the load looks like and to get an idea for wads and the amount of shot. I'm even going to load some round ball loads, again, just for fun.

So far the only loading information I've found is on the Marlin owners site and it appears it is for use in Marlin rifles. I'm thinking those loads would be too hot for the Game Getter.

I guess I can resort to black powder if I can't come up with smokeless loads with modern components.

Any help would be appreciated.
