flinch, Excellent reply and includes the realistic issue that most people can NOT handle even the 44 mag because they don't practise with it. The 357 with a good round is an excellent cartridge and at the upper end of what the casual shooter is going to realistically handle half way accurately PLUS give them a relatively accurate followup shot. Does my heart good to actually see people get away from the theoretical and into what the average Joe can do.
