I've been dreaming of getting a 44 magnum, and after reading a lot of threads I had decided on the 5" classic.

But, then I started reading about the PC version with the V-comp, and I'm curious. How much of a difference is there in balance and feel compared to the 5"? Can you use the v-comp break with lead ammunition? How difficult is it to clean? Is the 5" still more controllable, or does the comp even it out?

This is purely for a range toy.
