357 vs. 44 mag
which gun has cheaper ammo on average, somebody told me on average that 44 mag ammo is the same price or cheaper than 357 ammo i haven't done any research yet(i'm going to do some price shopping this weekend) but was just curious what everyone else's experience has been.

The 44mags are definately more than the 357mags. 38's work thru a 357 and 44 specials and russians work thru a 44 mag. There is not a big market for either of these so they cost as much or more than the mags, but they are cheaper to reload.

The 44 Mag is a bit more expensive but its a LOT more gun as well. If you reload, both are pretty inexpensive to shoot. There is just no reason not to reload if you enjoy shooting. Its cheap and easy to get in to.
