Its either that or find some form of 44 special hunting proj that deforms and transfers some of the energy as im thinking these hard lead are just trucking thru and not changing shape that much or at all.
its hard to fault them as this isnt a hunting bullet but it would be good to get it use a bit more its wounding potential

its quite annoying that the 300blk I have is far more of a hammer than this thing
