OK, I don't believe in hunting with a pistol, and so something like Hog hunting will not be one of the intended uses for the pistol..
My usage will be, 99% target shooting, 1% bad guy who's stupid.
That said, here is my question:: Is there anything that I can do with a .44Mag that I can't do with a .357Mag from a 6" revolver; keeping in mind, paper and potentially a bad guy.
I have a small .357Mag (Ruger SP101) for home D right now, I would like to introduce it to something with a 6" barrel for target. I would also like to stick to the same caliber. But I don't want to do that without hearing some reasons for going .44Mag, if there are a lot of good ones.
Stopping power wise, My understanding is, .357Mag is the ultimate man stopper, and a .44Mag probably is not statistically giving you all that much more?
Thanks guys.
