I'm thinking of getting one of these as a woods walking/hiking/house gun to up the power of the 38 Spl.snub that I uaually carry. Anyone have any experience with these new revolvers? I've used several Charter revolvers over the (along with S&W & Ruger) years and I always liked them. I've tried several 357 mag light revolvers but would like to try a "big bore". Also, how does the 40 S&W compare with the 44 Specials. Thanks.
