[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 287678, member: 2736"] For deer and hogs the 444 is awesome. Mine is in a TC Contender with a SSK barrel. It is a bear to handle (Recoil is around 45.8 ft/lbs) I use it out to 250 yards . For the longer shots I use a XP 100 action with a 16.5 inch barrel chambered in 7/08. I have zeros out to 600 yards and have made one shot kills beyond 500 yards with the 7/08. For long range hunting I highly recomend the bolt action pistols and for cost and fun the contender in something like the 7/30 Waters is hard to beat and it is a great hunting round. The only recommendation when buying a contender is to get it in a rimmed cartridge. (The cartridges that head space on the shoulder can be problematic). Just my 2 cents J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
