Would you share a few more details please?
Specific bullet...not all jsps are equal.
Where was the animal hit?
Penetration
Was bullet recovered?
Thanks,

Well done bud!!! I would expect no less of an outcome with a well placed shot. The .357mag is infinitely more capable than many give it credit for!
An old Cherokee was teaching his grandson about life. "Inside me two wolves fight," he told the boy.
"One is evil - he is anger, envy, greed, arrogance, self-pity, resentment, lies, false pride, and ego. The other is good - he is joy, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, generosity, truth and faith. The same fight is inside you - and every other person, too."
The grandson thought for a minute and asked,"Which wolf will win?"
The old Cherokee replied, "The one you feed."
Fair questions
It was the Nosler 158 JSP....the flat nose version not the rounded.
The bullet did not exit however I was unable to locate it due to the amount of damage it did. There was so much hemmoraging that I simply couldnt find it in the mess. I was in a tree stand about 8 or 10 feet up but due to the slope I was on a flat trajectory with him. Its actually my favorite spot. 5 different game trails come together right there and the acorns are always heavt this time of year. I shot him at the base of the neck where it meets the shoulder. He dropped in his tracks and never took a step. I was flatly surprised at the amount of damage that little round did to him. Not only did it break his neck (the vertebrae were completely shattered) but every bit of muscle was torn up. It looked like I hit him with a 308. The entire length of his neck was from shoulder to skull was mushed. It also severed his trachea and blew all the arteries in his neck. There was a river of blood pouring out of him. One of the fellas who helped me load him up asked me if I had shot him with a 270 due to the mess it made.
Ahother tree stand encounter with a different outcome. Posted earlier here.

Great shot placement. No tracking is a bonus.
Bullet placement trumps all. Good job. Congratulations !
We turned it all into burger and sausage
