AMMUNITION:
HUNTING

Munitions available for hunting can be summarized in a relatively straight forward manner by tabulating pertinent information in matrix form.  Refer to the following links for rifle and shotgun ammunition applications.

Handgun rounds suited for hunting are somewhat limited.  Consider .22 LR, .17 HRM and .22 Magnum for small game hunting.  The .357 Magnum is on the small side for deer hunting, but may be allowed in some states.  The .44 Magnum has more authority in this regard, and is the preferred round.
