I've got the .44 mag in stainless the mk2 with the ventilated rib the early ones didn't, and yes its a lump I've had it many years and wouldn't sell it had no issues with its very accurate off a bag at 50m

I shoot both 38 and 22 and reckon that with handloads I'm shooting my 38 for about half the ammo price of 22. You can't really take the reloading time into account cos it is a hobby aint it?

I have a Taurus in 22lr. Love it! It’s factory original only mod being me trimming the end off the coat hanger arm which is ridiculous to shoot with (don’t worry it’s still the correct length!). I have noticed recently the timing is slightly out when shooting double action. So I’ll have to drop it over to Alan Westlake to sort out along with installing a much better arm at the rear. I put a rail on it and use a micro red dot which is great. The only thing it needs is a speed loader, but the ones that I’ve seen are for 8 shot Taurus’s. I’ve been using a straight flexible rubber strips for quicker reloads which works well, but an actual cylinder shaped speed reloaded (HKS style) would be more ideal.
I have a 45acp version as well, which was tricked out by a comp shooter before I bought it and it is wonderful. Trigger, high vis sights, moon clips and very accurate. 45 makes a nice whole which is always very satisfying. I wouldn’t change a thing about it.
I have a 357 Alfa Proj, which is nice and light. I’m looking at target grips for it, as I find the grips a bit small at the mo. Again might take it to Alan to sort out, since I bought it from him a few years ago now. A rail would also be nice, but I don’t think this is an option for ‘em.
A few chaps down the range have the 357 Taurus and like it, but I’ve never felt the need to get one, as I have two already. I have noticed chaps using very hot factory loads in 357 which always makes me wince when I’m RO! I’m sure the frames will give out at some point!! I tend to use home loads in 357 or factory 38spl for my Alfa.
