After read this article  http://www.chuckhawks.com/825_magnum.htm by Chuck Hawks, I am selling off all my revolvers and buy the .825 Express Magnum.  :D :D

Sure you do Doug.  :o Sure you do.  ::) Should make a good squirrel gun but for real hunting you need something a bit more powerful.  ;D

A little too much for me.  I would however like to have one in .825 special since I have no need to hunt ELK or Deer.  I will mainly use it for prairie dogs, rabbits, and coyotes if they are close enough.

It's basically an 8 bore short.  Too bad you are restricted to under .50 for a handgun.  It would make a great side by side camp cannon for pesky bruins.  I would sleep better having a pair in the double gun at the opening to the tent than the .58 -20ga that is there now.
