In an informative article at Personal Defense Ammunition | Ballistics 101 the author says that there are .357 rounds that are good for both personal defense and hunting, but I'd like to know what those specifically are.

I live on a little bit of land next to pastures and fields, we've had coyote issues since my German Shepherd died this Spring, and I like Federal Premium Personal Defense Ammunition 357 Magnum 158 Grain Hydra-Shok Jacketed Hollow Point as a rural all purpose. But it's hard to find, and so in my .357 8 shot I have Federal Premium Vital-Shok Ammunition .357 180 Grain. However, the last time I used the weapon on our land, it was .38 cci no. 9 shot against a skunk :-).
