One cast h.p. kill to report. 308291 Ideal HP, Hornady gas check, 26 grains H-335, Winchester Model 94 26" barrel. Adult doe, broadside 42 paces away. Shot just above heart, obvious expansion immediately after clipping a rib, plumbing ripped up over heart, both lungs tore up, it looks as though the nose disintegrated with several small pieces having broken off. The rear of the bullet exited like a wadcutter with a few small holes around it. Doe made a mad dash for 4 or 5 bounds and collapsed.
Because I tinker way too much and often choose a different rifle each year I have not revisited that combo.
Solid cast bullet kills with 45-90 500 gr RN, 40-70 400 gr RN, 8x58 Rem/Danish .329" Karabiner mould ACWW+2% 1,400 fps, 35 Whelen 200 gr RCBS soft bullet 1,800 fps, three deer with 429215 ACWW 1,600 fps 20" carbine (that's a solid deer killer), 311284 ACWW+2% 1,900 fps, (very adequate I highly recommend that combo), RCBS 30-150-FN 1,600 fps, little or no expansion, perfect placement quartering on shot, broke leg, cut rib, lung, heart, lung, thru diaphragm, thru liver exit flank with 35 caliber hole.
Hope to use 33 wcf this Fall with Accurate 200 gr bullet mould that really resembles the RCBS 200 in 35, I really don't expect anything other than a hole thru a deer and more venison.
I can also say that big heavy soft lead tin bullets kill buffalo very nicely often with complete penetration. I've killed 3, my wife 1, and I have assisted in the disassembly of 19 more shot with similar loads.
