Thanks mooshoo. I'm a fan of the 180 FP Speers, too, but I was thinking of trying a cast lead bullet for deer in my old 141, 35Rem.
I tried a cast bullet (probably too hard) in my old 38-55 this year to take a doe. It worked but penciled through and I had a rather long tracking job with little blood. So I'm thinking maybe a soft cast would work better. Just curious if anyone had some experience with this?
The pistol bullets you use are .357" no doubt?
