[QUOTE="HoLeChit, post: 2764964, member: 35036"] When I mentioned "knockdown power" I guess you could say I was referring to penetration and expansion... Bad choice of words on my part. I'm just looking for something that I can make a clean one shot kill with an accurately placed shot. I don't reload (yet), but it is something I want to look into in the future, esp with getting into larger more expensive calibers. All of my guns that I have are cheap to shoot, and I bought them that way for that reason, among many others. Now.... What is the difference between .35 and .375? Aside from size? And one thing I have considered is getting a lever action in .357, as I would be carrying a revolver chambered in the same most of the time I am outdoors. What kind of performance would I be looking at out of a .357 from a rifle? When I think of a .357 rifle I just think of it as an oversized pistol, not so much as a viable tool for hunting. Shadowrider, I def would have been interested in picking that .375 up, aside from my concern of finding ammo for it. [/QUOTE]
