[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 325073, member: 704"] I will have to disagree with you a little SDMF. I have blown three inch holes in deer heart at 172 yards with 250 gr hard cast from a 44 mag rifle. One has to ponder which does more damage a 44 or 45 hard cast that doesn't expand, or a 30 caliber that expands to 44. Disregarding velocity of course. Then consider penetration. I am around people shooting 30-06 and 308 and often they find their bullets in the deer. Although slow the heavy hard cast I have never found in a deer. I see no need for expansion in my 45/70 300 gr hard cast at 2300 fps. [/QUOTE]
