I’ve been hunting with a 460 Rowland for a couple of years. I’ve killed a couple of deer and 3 hogs. It does well. It’s on a 1911 frame though. I had an Encore pistol in 30–06 but it was pretty much useless without a good rest. Defeated the purpose imo

Hard to beat the Waters in a Contender

As others have already said, the 7x30 Waters is a tried-and-true deer round. 44MAG is also a great choice. I prefer the 44MAG these days, mainly because my eyes are a bit older and I was having a hard time finding the crosshairs in a pistol scope. I had a scoped Ruger Super Blackhawk Hunter that was awesome, but it had to go due to my eyes. I now shoot a S&W 629 Classic with iron sights. Hard to beat that gun, and a lot of fun to shoot.
Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do.

Looks like cva stopped making pistols. None listed at thier Web page To be honest...I'm not sure if they ever had them on the web page. They make them in production runs, just a few months ago everybody had them available and now zero. Just got to catch them at the right time. Of the 3 I have owned I had to wait around for a production run to get the caliber I wanted each time.

CVA doesn't list everything on their web. I've handled one of those Grendels at Bass Pro. Stick your email in https://gun.deals/search/apachesolr_search/043125807055 to get notified when they're available. They're much heavier than a Contender. My Contender 30/30 pistol is a nice weight. Those CVA are chunks.

I got a Ruger Blackhawk in .41 Mag as college graduation present to myself. Never hunted with it(i am old, so it is ready to get some fresh air.) I am going to carry it in my pack next year, and go ahead and shoot one with it.

Better question would be what ear plugs to wear. I use electronic earmuffs
