We have used 44's for the past 10+ years and have not had any problems. If hog runs at you and you hit them with a 44 you are either going to knock them down or change their direction. Have never had one go through like you will with a 30-30. 357's are just too loud. Only problem I have had with a 44 is shooting hollowpoints ( which is all I use) shooting through brush and hit a twig the bullet will split and fragment into little pieces and could hit a dog. Has happened twice to me, both times with big boars in thick brush where the hogs were baying loose, my fault i should have waited for a better shot. And go with a marlin lever action and you won't be disappointed!
