Default RE: Which one should I buy?

I don't know if you're aware of this, but the .357 is not a legal caliber for hunting any game in Wyoming.

"In addition, the Commission authorizes any other cartridge fired from a firearm that has a barrel bore diameter of at least thirty-five hundredths (35/100) of an inch and the cartridge generally delivers at least five hundred (500) ft-pounds of impact at one hundred (100) yards and cartridges used are loaded with a soft, or expanding point bullet."

A 180 gr.357 only has about 402 ft. lbs. at 100 yards.
