You can only have 2 Handguns, a single shot and a revolver. What gun and caliber do you chose?

Single shot would be custom xp 100 in 300 wsm. Revolver would be magnum research bfr in 500 jrh.

I’ll just go with my first instinct. 357 maximum. Contender 14” and Ruger SRM 10.5

My Contender in .375 Win, and (with much hand wringing) I’d probably have to go with my Blackhawk in .41 Magnum. I would cry bitter tears though when I had to leave my .44s and .45 behind, not to mention the other two .41s.............

Yeah I really like my S&W 44 mags but since I can only have one it would be too hard to choose between them all.

A 22 semiauto from Ruger and a 44 mag in sa ruger would fill my needs!

If these are the only two handguns I own and have to do everything...
T/C G2 10" Bull Barrel .41 Magnum. There is a 2X Leupold on it now but would probably change it to a 2-6 for longer range target shooting/hunting.
Revolver is a tougher choice but would be one of four .41s: S&W 57 4" S&W 657 4" S&W 657 4" Mountain Gun Ruger Redhawk 4.2"

TC Encore (you said one gun,but didn't say you could only have one barrel). The bfr #5 in 500 Linebaugh I have on order if it's a shooter when it gets here. Or my current working gun, a 5.5" Sbh built by Leonard Baity 25 years ago freshened up again

I could get by with only my Ruger super blackhawk hunter in 41 mag, although it would cause me pain to see my 44s and 45s, and other 41s go.

I couldn't deal with a collection, however small, that didn't have a 1911 as a mainstay.

My single shot would be a FA 2008 44 magnum 10" and my revolver would be my five inch 44 special S & W 1950 target.

I've been chasing the optimal single shot recently and am still not sure I've found it. They're either big, heavy, clunky, unreliable, have weird scope positioning or something else that keeps them from being all they should be. Probably a bolt action 284 or similar medium/large 7mm, lightweight with brake. Does someone make a proper Hi Wall or No 1 style action for pistols? Throw a pistol grip on a No 3, modify the lever, and screw on a fresh barrel.
SA would be a FA 97 in 41, 44, or 45 with a short barrel and Trijicon RMR. Second choice would be a Ruger mid frame in anything 41 or bigger.

DON'T TELL ME I CAN HAVE OY ONE SINGLE SHOT AND ONE REVOLVER. The entire notion is repugnant to any free American...
