How are these things?

I really want one, not sure what I would do with it. But I want one.

I own about a half dozen rifles in the "not sure what I'd do with it" category -- .30 Carbine, a couple of .25-20's, .256 Win, 7x33 Sako, etc. I wanted them and don't want to get rid of them, but I'm still looking for something they're actually good for. I did kill a nuisance squirrel with the 7x33, but a .22 LR would have done the job just as well.

I let youngsters shoot deer with my 357 carbine and I shot a couple with it my self.

It would be just the ticket if you were charged by a rogue armadillo or a jackrabbit in thick brush.

Seriously i want one also--

I want one, or the 44.
But not at the price, MSRP $999, street price about $700!!

Ive handled a Winchester M70 CRF featherweight WSSM at a gun show, that was converted to .458x2, complete with english safari style sights,
I really regret not buying it, cause it really was an appealing little thing.

In the Ruger #3 in .357 I had built for my wife it became a whole new ball game when reloaded. It opens up a number of slower burning powders that can be used in some what larger quantity ; even with lighter weight bullets.
For example , using h110 with light bullet I succeeded in sticking two bullets in a revolver barrel one behind the other. That same load in the Ruger was just great.
As the bullet cleared the gap between the cylinder and the barrel the pressure droped severely and the powder did not burn completely inside the confines of the pistol.
