A .357 looses a lot of mushrooming oomph in a snub nose.
A .44 spec, otoh is a .44 is a .44.

Is that one yours?
Yes. Bought it second hand and really like it.Is that one yours?
How many shots you have bears little relationship to how many hits you will get. For defensive use, I'd go with either the .357 or the .44.Thanks for the advice. It seems it’s between the 357 and the two h&rs. The h&rs are in perfect shape. What would be better, 12 shots of 32 (6x2) or 5 shots of 357?
Welp, I went to get the Charter, but then an offer of a Taurus pt99 af with 2 17 round mags in the banned state of mass was given to me. So now im conflicted. capacity or caliber? Taurus pt99 or Charter 44 spl?
That is a hefty piece for concealed carry. If you can manage it comfortably then I would carry 15+ rds of 9mm over 5 rds of .44 special every time. Ammo selection for a 9mm is fantastic (in normal times) and will be cheaper than .44 for practice, plus the 5" barrel means you're getting the most out of 9mm and can pretty much ignore the need for +p or other gimmick rounds.
That's the kind of pointed stick I'd likeI would go with the pointed stick, not ideal for concealed carry but would work for open carry ...

That's a tough choice. Guess it relies most on your purpose. Charter Arms Bulldog if you want to conceal. Taurus for the range or home defense.Welp, I went to get the Charter, but then an offer of a Taurus pt99 af with 2 17 round mags in the banned state of mass was given to me.
