Well, pittpa, it sounds more dramatic than it actually was, deer was trying to get away from someone else, and was just in the right place for me to shoot from, but the experience made a real impact on me as to the effectiveness of this round. I had originally selected it more or less because it was available (back then at least), and was impressed at this impromptu and unplanned experiment. And looking at in retrospect, this was the 357 version, which although it is relatively mild as a 357, should have just enough more velocity from a 2" bbl to get it over the speed required to attain reliable expansion compared to the 38 +P version. I'm going to have some time off next week, will try to photograph those bullets.
