I shot several with a .45 ACP and the fast stepping .357 125 gr. was noticeably quicker dropping the coyote than the 230 gr. .45 Auto. If your hand load is cooking along pretty hot and is accurate it should do well. Velocity and quick expansion works on soft game of that size.

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
