Oh I wasn't thinkin deer, I was thinkin brush poppin for coyotes, maybe a fat hair now and then that sorta thing. A pot gun so to speak. Kinda like a good old 32-20, but in an easy to get (and pretty inexpensive) pistol round.
Don't get me wrong I wouldn't trade my 336 30-30 for three just like it and a hundred dollars, but I sure do hanker for a 357 levergun. GoodOlBoy

Well Adam is right
about the 357 for deer. But somea them deer in Texas is kinda small. Fer such a big state they sure do have little critters..cept'n Hawgs. Actually GOB that 110 gr cast or soft point plinker with unique load in the 30-30 would be ideal for brush poppin etc. Just find out where she shoots. I had one of those 357 lever guns offered to me at the last gun show. Didn't buy it.and the 1894 in 218 Bee just wasn't right either. If I find one in 44 Mag I might just buy it if'n the price is right. Money gettin tight round here and lots of guns for sale.

Prolly most of that high price is because of all that cowboy action shooting. I know they sue were not all that expensive when they first came out The Uberti's I mean. I bought a 4.75" barrels Colt clone in .45 ACP and .45 Long Colt for right around $180 and change as memory serves. It was more accurate with the ACP cylinder and I only sold it because the nickel plating was peeling off in strips.
 I should have just had my gunsmith strip all the nickel off and reblue the gun. It was more accurate than the genuine Colt single action with the same length barrel. Dang it, let another good one get away.Paul B.
