RE: 357 for deer (bear?)
I was talking to a friend last weekend about a "back-up" gun to be carried when Ihunt deer.The back-up is to be use to take a bear (as protection only, I am not a bear hunter) during black powder season. I told him I carried a.40 S&W. He suggests"upgrading" to a 357. Is this a good reason for me to buy a newgun? Thoughts?
