The doctor only confirmed my belief that in anything smaller than a 357mag only a FMJ will do. I am a firm believer in exit wounds. I have killed deer with a 7.62x39. Often the bullet often didn't exit the deer's body. Even though the shot was lethal the deer ran far enough a tracking dog was required to find the deer. When I shoot a deer with a 30/06 even though the bullet is the same diameter the deer goes down right there. The instant blood loss from the exit wound is impressive. I have seen blood spattered for several feet with a 30/06.
