I'll stick to the .357 mags for my rifle. I never really got the point of a .357 carbine. I have a Ruger in .44 mag and it is pretty useless too. Not enough power for a hunting rifle and not enough magazine capacity for a serious self defense weapon. (also a PITA to load/unload) I doubt I have fired it a dozen times and when I tried hunting with it, I lost more rounds than I shot. I don't hunt, but both the .357 and .44 carbines will drop a deer at at least 100-125 yards. That's the length of a football field. What are you hunting down there in SW Florida? Armadillos? This shot's for you, Gregg: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gPBKt3fFCw Plenty of muzzle flip there, even with a heavy 6-7" barrel and a muzzle brake.. THAT looks like a real .357 Those other guys were shooting .38 class ammo, probably on the order of the wad cutters I used to load. BTW have you ever seen that guy who does stuff like that with a 2"? I've posted this before but here's a good view of the recoil differences in .38 Special and .357 Magnum rounds. I am shooting a S&W 627 with a 5-inch barrel loaded with alternating .38 Special and .357 Magnum rounds. No question which is which. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UF00rLj8AEY Krause would say you just got extremely limp wristed when the .357 rounds cycled up. |
