This year I am going elk hunting with some co-workers in an area that is new to me. Some of the guys were talking about finding some elk bedding areas, but it is in 'some pretty thick stuff'.
So, I got to thinking that it might be nice to sit in that 'thick stuff' with my .44, if nothing else seemed to be working. Plus, it was a good excuse to get more practice in with my new 626.
The load I have been practicing with is Federals 300gr Castcore load, figureing penetration is what is important...but, as the season gets closer, and I overthink things, might I want to choose something like a Jacketed Soft Point instead, to get a little bit of expansion?
