[QUOTE="1mathom1, post: 1228742, member: 11736"] It's just my humble opinion but I think it would depend on your ability to get out and practice. A .357 mag DA revolver will be easier to use if things get hairy in a hurry than a .41 or bigger DA, any SA and any auto. My personal camping/hiking carry is 4" stainless Ruger Security Six. I can load it with handloaded snake shot, .38's or stouter 158gr .357 hard-cast depending on what is most likely to be the issue when I'm out. Or any combination for that matter....snake shot in first chamber and whatever else I want after that. Belt carried, strong side, thumb break holster or a belt pack if visibility is an issue. Used to carry a .45 auto but the snake shot loads available did not function well. That's the cool thing about all this....so many fun means to an end. [/QUOTE]
