    357 handi rifle gets another one

    Filled my doe tag with the 357 handi rifle and a 200gr hollow point. I am continually amazed at how well that bullet works at 1100fps or so. Click image for larger version.

    Nice longhead.

    Nice, I use a Henry single shot .357 with the Lee 358-158GC SWC at about 1400fps and have also had good results.
