A tube fed bolt gun in .357 would make a very versatile weapons. 12 rounds capacity in.38, hits like a sledgehammer, great availability/diversity of ammo, and inherently decent accuracy.
Decades ago the m1 carbine was a very desirable shooter. The .351 Winchester. The 30 commie. Your rifle will be in that same category. A .357 rifle is realistically pretty close to a30-30. Not equal, but pretty close. At short to moderate range the killing power should be very, very close.
