And we still aren't reading that he has to stay at 10 rds or under. C'mon guys.
My personal carry weapon in the woods is a 7.5 stainless SBH 44mag. It's more than capable of dispatching anything where you or I live. I believe you stated that you reload. So that's makes the 44 a good choice also for the versatility. BUT, you got 6 rounds. I've never needed more than 1 to do what I needed. But I've also never encountered growers. Personally I'm going to have to go with the other guy who said to get out of Dodge if you stumble on a site. Engaging the cartel with a bolt '06 and any handgun is not a smart idea.
