You should have seen the explosion from the 45cal 300gr PB Plat. It hit low and caught some bark on a log in front of the target.

It literally looked like a grenade went off. I have a pic of the target that got splattered somewhere. It destroyed the target.
I know first hand about what you are talking... My hunting partners uses those darn things in his 54 TC Hawken, he likes them because they are easy to load. But, we spend a lot of time looking for his animals sometimes - even with well placed shots. He is an excellent shooter - but the ease of loading and the availabilty of them for his 54 have him sold.
