Size of animal to size of projectile
How are you guys adjusting your size of projectile to size of animal. 2022 seems to be the year of the 357 magnum going back to being a useful hunting hand gun caliber for deer, and using 158 grain bullets to boot.
SO as i have had bad deer forage last two years, and last years babies have not really grown much at all. Honestly look as if they are 100# baby goats. Shooting them feels wrong somehow, but this year i am going to try to get one with my 357. Two are boys that i can see, and a few unknowns.
If I look at matts bullets, the options for "heavy" slugs is easy, that 157-170 grain range is rife with them.
THis is based on "bigger deer = thicker/stronger bone to shoot through"
