Hey y'all,
Just wanted to see if any of y'all have any experience using .44 300gr Hornady XTPs on deer. How is penetraton and expansion? My setup is a Ruger Super Redhawk w/ 9.5" barrel and my load is pushing the XTP at around 1250fps. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also have used XTP's in my muzzleloader, and have had no problems with penetration, pass right through. My friend that got me into muzzleloading has killed more than 20 deer with them, and none has needed a second shot, and only one ran more than about 50 yards.
