super red hawk 44 or encore 308

[hntr]

was thinking about purchasing either a super redhawk in 44 mag, 7 1/2" or an encore 308 pistol barrel 15" which I would have to purchase grips and forearm also, I can get the super redhawk around here for $450, and the encore stuff I think I can get everything for around $250 if you do not have to have a ffl to order just a pistol barrel from a catalog. I was wondering what the range of each of these guns would be and how accurate, i live in wv but also hunt in Ohio and I think I could use the 44 mag in ohio but I could not the 308. If I go with a straight wall cartridge I think I want a revolver instead of a single shot.

How do the prices of these sound, and how far will these shoot, I have a Leupold 4x pistol scope I bought a while back I think I will put on whatever I buy especially the 308

any recommendations would be appreciated
