100 yards is what I would say. In hardwoods or a pine thicket that could be a pretty long way. The real draw to me in a pistol caliber lever gun was always the Trapper models they use to make with a 16" barrel. That was handy in a thick spot or made a good tracking gun. I have never had a lot of interest in a 20 inch pistol caliber gun for deer hunting purposes. They made the same 16" guns in .30-30 so I would still rather have that over the .44 as well.
No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.

My good friend Chris uses one for deer and has been for years. His buddy hand loads the bullets for him.
