    as a reloader with over 44years years knowledge and experience testing many center fire calibers for woods/ or hunting backup for dangerous game my load would be 255-265 flat face of brinel hardness factor of 22 at 924 fps out of that short gun. for normal self defense carry 180 gr xtp or sierra 180 jhc at 1150 fps.i have a Taurus tracker 44mag reload 180 gr xtp 1350 fps around- 600 +ft/lb energy out of a 4in barrel but im told only 3 in of actual rifling and last in cylinder chamber for the gas pouts. Papa wishing you well

    Sexy tool bro. Check out these Carry Concealed upgrades: 1)Green/yellow HiViz front sight 2) Power Custom snag free low profile rear gutter style sights 3) Power custom bobbed (Forged) hammer 4) Power Custom cylinder latch aka "Gas Pedal" OR TK Custom cylinder latch/"Gas Pedal" 5) GREEN laser grip by Crimson Trace 6) last but not least, have the Robar company coat the gun with "NP3+" so your cylinder, forcing cone, and muzzle can be cleaned by just wiping the carbon off effortlessly. The NP3+coating is so slick that carbon cannot get a purchase on the surface and build up on it. Best of all, the NP3+ looks like the exact same bead blast gray finish you already have on the Sexy tool.

    The magnum loads are stout but not too bad. The magnum loads I only use for trail carry, hunting, and bear defense. The 44 specials are very nice to shoot with similar ballistics as a 45acp. 44 spl are my CCW ammo.

    Order the 3" one then specify the dimensions or before checking out they have a section for comments. Write whatever special instructions or dimensions. Then follow up and call them directly to follow up. They make their holsters custom for every order so they will work with you.
