as far as actual pistol cals, i have a marlin lever gun in 41 mag that i have killed 3 deer with, good 100 yard and less gun, but thats about it...
i think i would look at the S&W 460 line....
Per Indiana regs the SW 460 is illegal. It has a case length of 1.8 inches. Regs state the maximum case length is 1.625
Options in an Encore would be:
44 Mag
454 Casull
480 Ruger
50 AE
500 SW
I believe these are the only options TC offers tha tmeet the specs laid out by the IDNR.
I too live in Indiana.
