It was initially developed to be used in revolvers created in the 1860 Army percussion revolver. The United States Army used the .44 Colt Ammo from 1871 to 1873 but replaced it when a better performing cartridge was introduced, the .45 Colt Ammo. The .44 Colt Ammo has similar dimensions to the .44 Special Ammo in terms of bullet diameter

and case width; however, the exceptions can be seen in the shorter case length and smaller rim diameter. The first .44 Colt Ammo loading used a heeled to cover the outside of the lubricated bullet. The .44 Colt Ammo can be compared with the .44 Remington Ammo but delivers a lesser performance than the .44 Russian Ammo.
