Hi, just got into reloading last year. Still learning. I have an SP101 .357 in a 3" barrel. I'm looking to carry this gun as a back up when bowhunting. Mostly for mountain lions and maybe crazy silence-of-lambs freaks. What would be a good load for my gun in a .357?

I was thinking 158gr. XTP HP slugs.. What about powder for this short barrel? Bullseye? H110? Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.
