![]() ![]() Also lucky gunner shipping was about as much as the ammo.īottom line, I still stand by what I said on your two choices, I would have gone with the Taurus Tracker in the magnum so I wouldnt have to worry about ANY. The hornady XTP load is also good but for the cost savings on factory ammo I personally would stick to the underwood. Underwood has some loads that look great for a bull dog and they wont rape you and your wallet on shipping, for a box of 20 shipping is a nominal 7.95 to my home in Texas. No, the gun will not blow up but it will shoot loose alot sooner than needed. Several manufacturers list loads that are labled "too hot for the charter bulldog" and with good reason. 44 spl is under-appreciated and SD loads are not sitting on the shelf of the local academy sports or even bass pro, you most likely need to roll your own (handloads for defense are a different topic entirely and this is not the place to debate them) or order online. I do not for a second subscribe the mantra of "Carry alot, shoot a little, a gun that you are relying on for yours and others lives must be practiced with regularly, FPS is not a totally accurate way of measuring whether the cartridge is "hot" you would want to look at pressure levels. 44 spl is not dependent on needing to be heavy for SD/HD. No, it will not tolerate heavy loads for long before needing retiming, good thing about. You heard people say it cause WE said it in the prior thread. It's may be carried often and shot little, but that doesn't make it fragile. It's not likely you're going to put 30,000 rounds through the gun. ![]() Long story short, I think the Bulldog will stand up to any reasonable slow and heavy load. I like standard pressure Semi Wadcutters if want a clean hole or Semi Jacketed Hollow Points if I want expansion. They don't twist a lightweight gun out of my hands and seem to do the job when it comes to handling encounters with a person. I just want something that will put the bullet where I aim it and not beat the gun to death. I'm not interested in feeding any of these guns rip-snorters. 38s like the 642, LCR, and just picked up a Charter Arms Undercover yesterday. 44 special, but I have carried several lightweight. It also has to do with the fact that I can't afford to burn through enough premium ammo to get a true feel for how the gun will handle it. It's mainly due to the fact that they flash and report more. However, if you keep your loads to something isn't completely painful to shoot, I would guess you will get more than your $400 out of the gun. I'm guessing that several thousand hot Elmer Keith. I have heard that just tightening them works wonders. You make a super light gun and expose it to numerous violent explosions. I think the main issue with Charters is that the screws like to walk out under heavy recoil. ![]() I think it has more to do with what your hand will tolerate over what the gun will. ![]()
