I use the 100gr DPX. I didn't buy them for that reason. I think I just got lucky. I have some old Glazer Silver Dots that I don't know what to do with, so I load them up when I will be in crowds. I don't think they even make them any more.

I had a .44 bulldog back in the 80s. One of the guns I no longer have that I wish I still had. It was a handful to shoot and there were no carry permits back then so I sold it off or traded it. Compared to today's lightweight revolvers and autos, it probably wasn't much more ferocious.

Just gave my youngest son my dads old Bulldog , he loves it . 250 grain Keith bullets with 7.5 grains of Unique is what I load for it . He says they are a bit snappy !
