Back when I was still mad at the east Texas deer population, here was my "gonna get'em" hand gun. The barrel was originally a 30 Carbine and was rechambered by a gunsmith in Dallas to .300 Savage. I worked up my hand load a little at a time until I got it right and safe. For a handgun it would drive tacks out to 100 yards. Please do no use the loading data you see in my photo.
