Amen.There seems to be a number of shooters out there who belittle and denigrate any and all bullets which are lighter than what was once considered standard for that caliber.The usual remarks center around the fact that it has such a dismal ability to penetrate.
I would not use light bullets in the 357 for deer hunting but frankly I don't think much of the 357 for deer hunting anyway.I would also not care to attempt to penetrate a car windshield with it but I have very little faith in any expanding bullet for that.
All of the other condemnations that I observe about the lighter bullets are exaggerated in the extreme.I've been using bullets of all ranges of weight for many years and I simply do not find much of the criticism to be valid.My experience tells me the very opposite of so much of the internet forum hop-nob.
