I'm curious as to what you guys do with your larger cal bp revolvers. History, fun, or do you actually use it in the field?
What's the largest critter you would feel comfy shooting with it? The Walker, even with the higher velocity seems a bit weak to use on anything fairly large or sturdy out to 25 yds.
My intentions are to have a sidearm during primitive hunting season if I have to track a wounded hog that will handle an aggressive bear (most likely black in either Rockies fro CO on south or Appalachian Mtns) if need be.
Would you trust a round ball backed by 55 grns (I don't like pushing limits) with a wounded/aggressive/starving 300-500 lb above mentioned critter?
