Default RE: Which .357 magnum load

I would have to agree that you should avoid hollowpoints. 125 grain or more, roundnose or flatnose, semi-jacketed. No wadcutters.

I shot an 8 point with my NEF .357 mag Handi-rifle 2 years ago and the 110 grain holow points stopped on the far side of the ribcage after going through both lungs. No exit hole, no blood trail. If I hadn't seen him drop a hundred yards away,I might not have recovered him.
