I am looking at getting a big-bore revolver sometime in the (undertermined) future. It goes between number 1 and number two on my list, swapping frequently with my desire for a full-size .357.
So...I have kind of settled on the idea of getting something in .45 Long Colt.
But!
When people talk about 'should I get a .38 or a .357' we all seem to say get the .357...it's more versatile!
So, if I got a .454, I would have that same veratility...just in a larger gun.
However, the price difference for new .38's and new .357's is quite small. .454's though...they are pricey. I mean, i can get a .45LC Rguer Blackhawk for under $360. The cheapest .454 I've seen is the Taurus Raging Bull...and they seem to go in the mid $600's.
So, if I have no real plans to go hand-gun hunting for moose or bears, is there any reason to spend the extra money for the .454, or, is that some thing I should just wait to get seperatly when I feel the need/want for a true Hand Cannon?
