I have owned 2 77/44's; one blue/walnut and one SS/Synthetic. Accuracy of both was disappointing. Groups ranged from 4 to 10 inches at 100 yards. I killed a couple of deer with them but could never find a load that shot well.
I now have a 77/357. It does much better, about 2 MOA with the loads I have tried. I have taken one deer with it. It also handles .38 Spl. ammunition very well and is a fun plinker.
