I'm really digging the wheel gun and cartridge porn this thread is welcoming. I glanced at the .500 S&W for sale at Bass Pro during lunch, and prompted me to google. 44 vs. .454 vs. .500 comparisons at lunch. These big cartridges and revolvers are amazing!
We love our Ruger GP100 .357, and I'll be in the market for another .357 soon. But for now, for our intended purpose, I can't see wanting anything larger than the .44 magnum.
I know what you mean about the gun porn. I am sitting here rubbing oil on my S&W 44 mag. 6 1/2 inches of hard steel barrel.
DeplorableOne you mentioned hiking in big game country. We are considering a relocation somewhere near big game country. Do you guys hunt as well? What would be considered a milder round for the .44 to get her started off in, aside from 44 special?
