Ok, so I was looking through revolvers on Taurus' site, and I'm at a crossroads as to which caliber to get when I ultimately decide to buy my revolver to keep in my truck.
The gun will have to have a 4" or longer barrel since it will be a big-bore and I want to keep the recoil to a minimum, but I also want to have a caliber that will do the job in one shot.
The choices have come down to .357 Magnum, .41 Magnum, or .44 Magnum. My preference was leaning towards the .41 Magnum because of the energy it can deposit (over 1000 ft-lbs) and the fact that its different from what everyone else has. I like having something different. The .357's main drawback is that its not much stronger than the .40 S&W that I have in the PT24/7, so I would really prefer something stronger. Reading an article in this month's Guns & Ammo only made me appreciate the .41 more.
The choices:
Raging Bull in .41 Magnum
Raging Bull in .44 Magnum
Tracker in .41 Magnum
Tracker in .357 Magnum
