I'd like to load a bullet with good quick expansion because the hunt is close quarters with woods, bluffs, creeks. I could lose a deer in this area although I haven't yet with my rifles. I'd just like to use a handgun but wanted advice on cast or jacketed bullets and wanted a good pass through blood trail for recovery but still with tremendous shock for possible immediate knockdowns. I like to use the broadside shot through both shoulders for a crippling and mortal shot so the animal doesn't run off very far if not already immediately on the ground.
