.357 Magnum Too Much Recoil?

[bangaway]

The .357 with 125 jhp is one of the best one shot man stoppers out there. It makes a big exit hole from one's back. Key word is exit. You are responsible for all you hit with your gun. Your kid or mine in the next apt. or two blocks away. Choose your ammo you live with it. Is 21 yards or less where most, 90%, shootings are done? I use upside down 148 gr. hollow base wc in .357 at 850 fps. Kills 140 pound goats one shot only one hole. Have fun and bangaway.

Missed shots are far, FAR more of a liability than over penetration on one that hits. IMO the issue of over penetration is blown out of proportion considering the average hit ratio is 18-20%
