While I truly love and carry a slab sides daily, I have had occasion to use a 357 with a medium load and reversed wad cutters. Let's just say that that is a wound equal to a Civil War musket and leaves a lot of work for the Corner.

"...a 357 with a medium load and reversed wad cutters. "

Some might not appreciate the fact that "wadcutters" are swaged from soft lead, and have a large, cavitated "hollow" base. At close range they are indeed devistating.

The ACLU would consider them "Cruel and unusual punishment", I'm sure.

I've heard of some blokes inserting a .22 nail driving blank into the cavity, so that it would detonate on impact.

Don't know how legal that is, but sounds like fun.
