I must have one of those!!! :grin:   It's just odd enough to interst me.  Wish they made it with a 6" barrel--that would be great for blasting woodchucks in the back yard.

The only thing I wonder is if the point of impact would be way off when you swith ammo, say going from 115gr 9mm to 158gr .38 to 125 gr. .375.

Wonder if the bore diameter will be .357 or .358.   I don't think it could be .356, or that would make the .357 dangerous to shoot.  Even .357 might make hot .357s dangerous to shoot.  .358 is safest, but it will impair the 9mm accuracy quite a lot, possibly, as would a .357 bore to some extent.  It's a tradeoff of course - I think they're going to err on the side of safety (not being sued), and that will make the 9mm less than fully engaged on the rifling.  So it will be interesting to see whether 9mm is significantly less accurate, or so little difference as to be negligible.  In any event, fun.  I'm interested in this one in 6", and one of the new 2" Trackers in .410 bore.  :shock:

I called Taurus when the triad disappeared from the website.  Guys...

the Triad is a no-go.  It has been permanently shelved for some reason.

Taurus dropped it for one of two reasons; either they weren't selling or they didn't work right, possibly both  As for bore diameters, I have a Colt Python that slugs .3555.  Hot loads have never been a problem.
