I have been looking at the S&W Profermance .44's and the all the Ruger models in the 6" - 7 1/2" in barrel size.
I have a performance model 460smith. And I will tell you, I am very impressed with it. It has shot 3" groups at 200 yards. No lie. Amazing gun. I also love the Rugers. But never saw one shoot like that. But mine is a 10.5" barrel.
I wouldn't hesitate to look at the light hunter by smith.
