Here in the South some people hog hunt with dogs and use handguns up close so they don’t hit the dogs but most carry .44 magnums.

Nobody around here hunts deer with a handgun. Although we could as deer walk past our deck a couple times per day. :-)

Not sure why it's unconventional. I mostly bow hunt, so from many of my stands which have no long shot possibilities my Contender if fine in terms of accuracy, and far superior in negotiating around a tree that either a rifle or bow. I've occasionally used a Blackhawk for the same reasons.
