just to satisfy my curiosity, and without any legal issue, I'd like to know from skilled hunters, what can reasonnably be hunted with these 2 rifles..
the 1st is a 24" 44-40 Uberti Winchester 1866..
the 2nd is a 24" 357mag Uberti Winchester 1873..
looking at the table, the rifle in 357mag can provide more kinetic energy, but i wonder if the heavier bullet from the 44-40 (loaded smokeless or with full charge of black powder) is better in hunting application-
Thank you very much for your help ^^
