A Bit OT - .30 Herrett / .357 Herrett Questions

I'm looking to add a barrel to my T/C Contender to use to hunt whitetails in the woods of Pennsylvania. A bid deer in the area where I hunt will go 160 pounds live weight and most are smaller. A long shot through the woods is 100 yards.
Based on what I've read on line, if I want to go with a 10-inch barrel (and I do for convenience sake), I should be looking at either the .30 Herrett or the .357 Herrett. Do any of you have any experience with either of these cartridges and if so, which would you recommend for my purposes and why?
