There are plenty of off beat companies with hot loads such as Corbon. But I've found some good ammo right from the shelf. If your looking for thick skin take down, the Federal cast core 180 grain goes through just about anything. I purchased the Sellier & Bellot 158 grain Soft Point. Check out the stats on this round, high FPS and FT LBs. There was a guy up here in NH last year that had his S&W 686 in the tree stand with him while bow hunting for deer. A bear wandered by and he dropped the bear with one shot from his .357mag. in the neck. The .357 mag aint the best round, but it can get the job done.
