I've been handgun hunting for over 40 years and I'd not recommend anything on your list. Just get a .44 Magnum and you'll have all you need. Hard cast bullets are good on turkeys cuz they don't do the damage JHPs do and they are my pick on hogs also but I really do prefer JHPs on deer altho cast works well for deer as well.

a .44 magnum is a great gun but a .357 magnum with 158 gr. hardnose will do just as good if u r a good shot and will damage less meat i would suggest a ruger blackhawk for ur hunting
