Son in law got his 1st deer this am. A nice Iowa doe. His rifle is a Henry Golden Boy .357 with my reloads. 158 gr. swc Mold (166 gr w/my alloy), 14gr H110. Exit hole about 1/2". The shot was plenty low at 50-75 yds but the bullet managed to graze the heart and plenty of lungs and didn,t run very far. Will add pics if I can figure out how.
Congratulations to you both. The first deer is special for sure, especially with home grown ammo.

Paper targets aren't your friends. They won't lie for you and they don't care if your feelings get hurt.
Thanks guys. He,s had some rough times lately and this was a real ego booster for him. He needs all the encouragement he can get.
Job well done!
One round at a time.
