Hard so no penetration. If hit dead on it would be a tie. Throw both at a deer and that lousy sd of the bowling ball winds it, while the spear goes clean through because of that really high sd. Penetration. Dead deer. You wanna pound yourself with magnums that’s fine, you get minimal result on the other end compared to the result on your shoulder and eye brow, whatever ratio you’re happy with.👍
The 308 Winchester is hardly a magnum but it is considered to be an efficient cartridge .
