No, Max, I didn't. I shot the rifle only at the range, then sold it to a guy who hunted Vancouver Island's little deer as well as black bear. He preferred 3 year olds for the pot.
When buying the rifle, he asked me what load to use and I told him, 270gr. WW Power Points and 74gr. IMR 4064.
A few seasons later I asked him to sell me the rifle back and he laughed, saying" all of my hunting buddies have tried to buy it as well. "They first told me it would cut a deer into 2 pieces, but just like you said, I was able to eat right down to the hole. They were amazed. It just pencilled straight through. No meat damaged. I've never even thought of putting the .358 barrel on it."
