For those who hunt with and carry handguns, Whats your favorite? The last one you would part with? Consider its use as a carry for self defense against two and four legged varmits. Its ability to be carried at all times and its ability to stop a fight.

Although no one handgun fills all these needs perfectly, My first choice and last to go would be my Taurus 44 Magnum Ultra-Lite Titanium 4 inch revolver. With Bullets available from 165 grains to 355 grains its as versitile as it gets. While a little large, it weighs only 26 OZ.

For Defense against the human varmits, I carry it loaded with 200 grain HP 44 Special loads whish are easy to shoot and have controllable recoil. For Defense in the woods, I have different loads but my favoorite is the 300 Grain Gas checked WFN lead bullet. I need a taller front sight for this load for targets but its a powerful load that I load to about 1100 fps for the Ultra-lite.

S&W builds a simular Ultra-Lite but so far the Taurus has been a very good shooter and very reliable for about 300.00 less than the S&W.

There would be better guns for special uses but this one could fill all my needs. It has trhe best factory grip that I have seen.
