 CW, the 357 maxie will take a calf killing Mexican buzzardout of a sweet gum tree
 at about 125 yds one shot, one dead buzzard on the ground. broke him of the habit
of killing ol' marv's baby calf. Marv.

NICE!! 
  I haven't been able to get great accuracy out of light bullets in my Maxi. Not an issue for me as I just use a lighter caliber. Mine is a hunting round and 180's are my bullet of choice. If a 125HP could be made to shoot as well as the 158/180 grainers.. WOW you would have a neat little varmint caliber too!!!
