If you reload, there's no need to shoot specials in a magnum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
army_eod Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I would like to find a Taurus titanium 44 SPL like I used to have. Going back 15 years maybe. If anybody has one to part with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongo Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 l have a Charter Arms Bulldog. l was told it was the one on the magazine cover awhile back sent for testing. l also have a Stainless Blackhawk .44 Mag, Blazer .44 Spl works great for me. l recently bought another Charter Arms undercoverette in .32 Mag. While looking through their line up l saw the .44 Spl Bulldog with the 3" barrel is available. Blackhawk in .30 Carbine, S&W stainless .38 Spl detective and two rimfire revolvers. Heritage with 9" barrel and Wienrich with tip out cylinder. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup....recoil and muzzle blast. (I don't have any revolver chambered in .44 Special. When I first started shooting, EVERTHING had to be full power mags through the 44, 41 and 357. As I aged, I kind enjoy the powder puff stuff if I'm just plinking out in the gravel pit. Since somewhere around mid-summer, I've gotten a case of "tennis" or "golf" elbow in my right arm. So there only the 38s out of the 686s and .44 Specials out of the 29s. I have some rather mild .41 loads made up for the 57s and BlackHawk I gotta' test out before wading through the snow and cold temps make shooting a lot less fun. But, at least the bugs aren't bad this time of year. I've so far never had a problem with brushing the ring out the cylinders from using the shorter rounds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rellik Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I hear'ded that! I've come to think the 38 will do it all, from plinking, to pests, to palukas. But somedays I get uppity and need slappin' around a mite. Then I dust off the huntin' loads for my pig-hammers. The 300XTP at 1280 45 Redhawk will make you humble. And the Hodgdon book says I can go 3-4 more grains of 296. It'll knock a wedding ring off a closed fist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, you better do a good cleaning before you jump back to full house magnum loads. Over pressure much? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt Longmire Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I have a pile of Redhawks, Blackhawks, Colt SAA's, and S&W. But my only .44 Special gun is a Colt SAA. Oh, and I have Dan Wesson in .357 Maximum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
