I have tested the 9mm in the field and was so disappoint in the penetration it had (tested on a black bear carcass) it could have been the loads, but from what i have been reading it would appear that this is standard with the 9mm (if i am wrong PLEASE set me straight) I would prefer a revolver (less chance of a jam up...) but being able to pack with easy is my main concern. I can handle some kick, but i think the S&W .500 and those cannons are not really what I am looking for.

Thanks for all your support!!

So what is the impact different between the .44 mag and the .357?
