As was said it would make more sense for Ruger to produce one in 10mm, cheaper brass and ammo costs, doesn't have the punch of 44mag, but the other positives of the 10mm would outweigh that in an autoloader.
And as was said, it's too easy to procure a 450 Bushmaster which dwarfs the performance one can expect from a 44mag in a 16" barrel.
450BM 2,100fps 250gr
44Mag most reports out of 77/44 have been in the 1,700fps with a 240gr.
Nearly 20% greater velocity in comparable bullet weight.
It would be nice for a limited run for the wheel gun guys. I just don't see it happening.
