.357 Maxi gets it done
« on: November 15, 2010, 01:19:14 AM »
Well I got to try out my new Maxi this weekend.
I hunted Saturday morning but didn't get anything so I went back out in the rain Sat afternoon. About 5:00 a big ole doe came walking out of a thicket about 40 yards away. I put a 180gs SSP thru her heart and it was all over after a short 20 yard dash. The SSP went all the way thru and left about a 1"" hole on both sides. Pretty happy with the performance of this gun.   :)
