For me, I've always wanted a 357 rifle, but didn't want to pay the money they go for. I can cast bullets for it and shoot it cheap, or load it almost to a 35 rem which will work for 99.9% of my deer hunting. The Ruger American I have in 350 is very short and handy, light and accurate.

It might be lonely at the top, but it's a bitch at the bottom.
