i have a security six- 6 inch barrel-357 and i was wondering what you sighted your pistol in at for at what yardage.

[jrswanson1]

Depends on what I'm using it for. 25 yard max on a .357 if you aren't hunting with it.

thats just it. I do wish to hunt deer with it

[jrswanson1]

50 yards is max from what I've heard about a .357 on deer. I'd use a red dot scope, but I'm old and I need all the help I can get!

7 yrds for defence. 40yrds for hunting. The 357 will take down deer at 50yrds but you MUST practice, practice, practice! If you can't put 6 shots in a 10" circle at 50yrds, then move the target closer until you can. That'll be the range you'll take your deer.
