I've taken deer and bear with a 223 using Nosler and TSX bullets. The 357 maximum rides on the heels of a 30-30 with hand loads and the 357 lever action I take that out to 125 yards max with 180 grain xtp or 158 grain xtp.
Not advise but I've seen some guys loading their 357 Mags to 357 maximum loads in they're rifles.
