I shot a forky Saturday evening with my 10" 357 max. 180 Hornady SSPB over 21 gr of Lil gun. Shot him at about 45 yds as he was sneaking along the edge of a swamp. It was really thick and I had to pick and opening ahead of him and shoot as he stepped into it. Shot him through both front shoulders and he went down DRT. 4th deer of the season, 1st handgun kill.

Rod, too.
Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.

The bullet got complete penetration with about a quarter sized exit. We took some pics, my bud killed a 6 pt that same evening. I'll have him e mail them to me and post them asap.
