    Thanks for the post mate. Just wondering though regards all that and your buddies are they using supressors for the 44's? I cant use one here. I just had to clarify ,being you guys have better freedoms with guns than we do, you might assume I can use one.

    if its a choice between equal powder loads in a "44 subsonic bang" and a 357 "low speed but supersonic crack-bang" not making much difference to a bare barrel, I would probably choose the latter just for the jacketed bullet expansion and trajectory.

    A 44 subsonic is still not hearing safe but even if bare barrel its less disruptive than anything else for dogs, it will certainly get the nod.

    As to sights, yes current 22mag , which is my mates rifle has a lazer with scope at present. Also Gen 1 NVG for a while( which was pretty piss poor performance)
