I'm looking at a .357 though. Can you or Downshift comment on that caliber for deer hunting? While a 357 will kill a deer, a 44 will be the better option IMO

If I buy a .44 that's all it is - a one trick pony. I could hunt with the long barrel and shoot .38 through the 4 inch barrel. If you guys are interested I'll email you the auction number over at Gunbroker.

It rocks your shite bad enough out of a 4" smith though. I read that they kick hard enough to cause the bullets to jump crimp.

If they can land 100+ yards shots with a wheelgun they must be pretty solid. I liked the interchangeable barrel setup they used but it never really took off.
