Re: 357 Magnum Top Gun List
I recently sold off all my 357's but if I had to choose it would be
Rossi 92,20" barrel Stainless lever action , ensuring it could feed 38 specials as well( all of mine did)
Taurus 608 8 shot revolver, dont know much about them, just googled it I only run specials( 38 and 44 sp) in revolvers as I dont like the magnum blast
TPS folding survival rifle in 410gauge/357

Re: 357 Magnum Top Gun List
I'm not the fan of .357 I used to be so I guess I would swap my self-modified 1978 Ruger New Blackhawk for a three screw version.

Five shots chambered in 357 Magnum- or 38 Special bird shot.
It's a surprisingly high quality piece.

If money were no object, I'd go for brand new fancy Winchester Model 92's. I know they're Japchesters but they've got the name.
A Carbine: https://www.winchesterguns.com/products ... rbine.html
and a Deluxe Takedown Rifle: https://www.winchesterguns.com/products ... edown.html
However, that's just for the name 'Winchester' on them. I've had my 2 Rossis since 2009 and after Steve's smoothing video and few parts, I love both.

Re: 357 Magnum Top Gun List
I've shot a timber wolf and certainly wouldn't pass one up.
still if I had to carry one around all day the little round barrel rossi carbine I bought just because of it's lightness would be hard to beat for weight.
it'd be pretty hard to beat my Dan Wesson with changeable barrels too.... on the range.
it's only drawback is it's a bit robust for simply carrying in a holster all day, so I'd have to defer to a 4-5/8th's Ruger Black hawk.

Re: 357 Magnum Top Gun List
Keeping within the .357mag parameters!
I'll keep with my R92, SS 16" carbine, alongside of my Taurus 627, Tracker, 6.5" barrel, 7 shot.
That combination will handle anything I may come across out in the field!!
