Congrats on the tag. what unit is the tag for. What caliber of gun just depends on how you will be persuing it. Im guessing you will be using dogs. There are several calibers that work well. I have taken several lions with just a .22LR. You refered to a handgun. Is a rifle out of the question. they are a little awkward at times jumping off and climbing up ledges and can get heavy at time but in my oppinion they are of great value. I would have to say with a pistol take a 22mag and in rifle a 223 works great.
