Ok I may not be the brightest star in the sky, so please bare with me.
From what I read the 357 is rated as the #1 one shot man-stopper. That being said, then why is it when someone asks about carrying a 357 in the woods they're told that a 44mag would be better..
My Question is, what can a 44mag bring down that a 357mag cannot..I realize it may take a few more rounds with a 357mag then it might with a 44mag. but its the end results that matter.
Also what if I had a rifle chambered in 357mag, would that level the playing field any????
