I have taken an Antelope and a Black Bear with a 265 grain SWC cast bullet from my 629 S&W. I took a 28 year hiatus from handgun hunting, but about 2 years ago have once again (though unsuccessfully) started hunting again ....hoping for an elk! If it happens, it will be a 400 grain, wide metplat, cast bullet......from my S&W 460 XVR. memtb
