A .44 Magnum will take down some good size ruminants for sure. Big ass round, with a lot of kinetic energy and hitting power. Fired one a few times... found it... NOT pleasant... haha!

Agree - as I get older, even though I can handle the push back of some heavy duty rounds, I find that I don't enjoy it. Even my Rossi carbine kicks too much for my liking with .357 rounds so I usually use .38 Specials in it (as in my revolver). I keep a supply of the .357 rounds "just in case" but my 1911 .45 is about the biggest round I actually enjoy shooting these days.

“...I find that I don’t enjoy it...”

Indeed.

I’ve been shooting since I was 10 years old, fell in love with the whole panoply of the shooting world. I don’t ever want to get to the point where it’s NOT enjoyable.
