I've used both, an 870 12 gauge and a 44 mag revolver. With the revolver it reminded me of hunting with a bow. The kill range is much closer compared to the shotgun. But, the revolver is certainly lighter to carry around all day. It's a personal choice I believe. If one can accurately shoot a revolver, it should work fine. Many are having good success with a suitable size/caliber handgun.
