I wouldn't have thought that you could tell the difference between the carbine and the rifle in the 357.
Good to know though.

I was a bit surprised myself. It was more noticeable from a rest position than standing. Again, not a problem but noticeable.

JEBar currently I only squirrel hunt with 22LR. The 357 is just for plinking and fun right now. But it’s good to know I could hit a deer with it if I decide to hunt whitetail.

Oh yea, most capable.
The first year I had my Rossi I took a nice 8 point.
He was around 90 or so yds. one shot and he didn't make but a few steps before hitting the ground.
