Hey guys, need some input here. I'm looking to buy a pistol for deer hunting and maybe a little hog? I'm not looking to shoot over a 100 yards, but I would like to be able to if needed. I'm liking the thought of .357 so I can do a little plinking with a .38 round. I will be reloading my own ammo as well. The .41 intrigues me greatly. Let me know what your opinions are on these calibers. Oh yeah, I don't want anything with less than a 6 1/2" barrel, I have looked at the 8 3/8" barrels but they weight may be more than I want. Let me know. Thanks in advance.
