Use blocks of wood or metal plates of different thicknesses. Shoot with .357M and .44M having the same speed and see which has the best penetration. Larry
Says a lot for his shooting ability.
What, pray tell, is the peer of 300 dead bears?Naw.........such anecdotal experience proves nothing.
We'd need a controlled peer reviewed study of at least 300 dead bears.

This can be analyzed to the tenth degree with charts, graphs and 8x10 glossies. When we are done, there will be one thing that has always been true, and will always remain true. I matters not whether it travels on two legs, four legs, swims or flies. If it gets hit anywhere near a vital spot with one ounce of pure lead traveling at 1700 fps (the specs on my box of Winchester 12 ga slugs) it is going to die.
Does the caliber REALLY MATTER?
Or is placement what Really Matters?
Figure I would be carrying either the 45.70 (430gr) or 44mag (265gr) rifle both using flat nose rounds with the 10mm on body with 190gr flat nose. If they doesn't work then maybe the odor will drive them away![]()
