I felt the same way until I bought one. It's the most fun you can have with your clothes on.I have the combo in 22lr but I can’t get myself to get a 357 rifle because you can get so much more power for less money in one of the common rifle calibers. I like 357 handguns though.
I find I don’t really need anything more powerful most of the time. For range use, my shoulder is much happier shooting 100 rounds of .357 through my Rossi 92 than 20 rounds of a stronger cartridge.I have the combo in 22lr but I can’t get myself to get a 357 rifle because you can get so much more power for less money in one of the common rifle calibers.

For hunting, the 92 with Buffalo Bore loads is sufficient for anything local, and it’s a great field gun, light and short.
.357 and .44 "sets", although only the revolvers are by the same maker.I've always acquired rifle calibers in rifles and handgun calibers in handguns. But, I've come to believe that many shooters like having at least one matching rifle/handgun set, and have begun to think about a set in .45 Colt, .357 Mag or .44 Mag, given that I have handguns in all of those already. I have no specific intended use in mind (and I don't shoot Cowboy events).
For those who do have common-caliber sets, what is appealing or beneficial about it to you?
