I think jacketed round-nose solids is the best, providing deep penetration, and with satisfying results(very satisfying indeed). The wound channel would be quite large..... Use with caution though as jacketed bullets are known to break at high velocity and energy, that could cost you.
We ARE talking about bullets right?
Any barrel length suggestions?

The two things that matter most are diameter and depth of penetration. In todays world a jacket is a requirement. To use nonjacketed ordnance could have dire circumstances.
On a nonhunting note and to answer the question posed; The Circus and Side Show located in Cleveland's Flats!
As I understand it, shot placement is significantly more important than either barrel length or wound channel diameter. I also have seen comments from more than a few posters here concerning a preference for "Texas Heart Shots"... No, sorry...I ain't going there..

Is anybody gonna admit that they prefer to the fasster small bore as opposed the slower big bore? --------------------------------------------- Speed Kills(the mood)
Just like Gerards bullets, I prefer the driving bands, that way it will conform to the bore, and you will get more velocity,less drag, and it does not foul the bore as much. Don't forget it also has a serious boattail
I believe there are skillful shooters that can fire them jacketed round-nose slugs several times before having to reload. What do you guys think of jacketed hollow points? They mushroom into a pretty big diameter!

Oh, one more thing before I go to sleep. This is for the ladies as well.
Do some of the women have the same success with rubber bullets? Certainly they are not the real thing because they do not expand or mushroom right? But some do seem to be satisfied with these synthetic round-noses though....

I don't know about the rest of this stuff but I got several "hand loads" in a little shop in the keys. Damned if I can't remember the name of it but, all calibers were well represented.
My female counterpart considers that most men do not carry their brains in their head. This thread seems to confirm that. Don't any of you guys go blowing your brains out,You hear?!?! I have heard it said and I hope it is true that "It is not how big the caliber but how long you can stay in the hunting field that counts" I guess that is my only hope. Good Hunting, no matter whether it is for two or four legged deer/dear. "D"

It seems to me that moly coated projectiles will work better than just a jacketed bullet to minimize bore fouling. Unfortunately, I am not in a very target rich environment right now and handloading has been my only option. A friend of mine recently resorted to the canned hunt outside of Vegas but I just can't ethically justify it. Just shooting fish in a barrell ya know.
OK enough of that. My favorite strip club is Club Paradise in Vegas. Classy, comfortable and not as crowded with knuckle dragging pricks as a place like Cheetah's. The girls at Paradise are also a lot more "real" than the Cheetah's gang.
Enjoy,
