    I’m personally a fan of Taurus revolvers I have a raging hunter 460 mag a Taurus tracker 357 a m44 44 mag and they all shoot great. The 460 is a BLAST.

    I think Taurus is the best value in revolvers going today, and they offer a big selection with many that nobody else makes. S&W and Ruger still don't have a small frame six shot .38 Special snubnose although they are certainly capable of it. While I love both of those companies and have many of their products, I'm not going to sit on my hands in the hopes that they will make a gun that I want when it is already available from Taurus. Hence, my three 856's.

    Although I am a bit of a snob--I have many more Colts and Smiths than Tauri--I have to concur that right now, there is no better value in a revolver than a Taurus. My tracker and 85 have given excellent service, and my Taurus-made Heritage Roscoe is superlative. It is everything you can ask for in a 2 inch 38.

    I am on the look out for a 3" 327 to replace my SP101.
