    The .44-40 and black powder works just fine so the .44 Mag and the .357 have to be better. (This was the smallest one; the others were mature animals and I get complete pass throughs with it.) The .44 Magnum will kill as well as a .30/30 at any range you could hit something with one. The .357 Magnum I have not used, but based on my .44-40 experiences, I would be perfectly happy with one.
    So the answer is yes. Yes, you can, and yes you should.
