I do.
On Saturday I purchased my first revolver.
S&W Model 29-2 6.5" .44 Magnum.
40 years old and never been shot.

Very pumped about this purchase (although my fiance wasn't).

We'll start taking donations for some ammo for your new .Callahan S&W Special.
In all seriousness, you have quite a range of fodder available, from the primer-powered "X-Ring" rubber bullets to the 180g SinterFire frangible to the 310g LRNFPGC. Of course, you can always settle for the everyday low-priced Wal-Mart 240g, too!
Don't hesitate to run some milder .44 Specials through that beast either.

Definitely going to check out the .44 Specials..
Right now I have a box of 240g Rem. Mag.
I will also be reloading these at my friends house.

It's a great caliber to reload since everything is big enough to see and handle easily.
