The .44 Special is one heck of a defense round being grossly overlooked since the advent of the .44 Magnum. Try shooting 10 rounds of .44 Special, then try 10 round of .44 Magnum to choose for yourself which round you'd rather be putting out in a defense situation. You'll be on your mark more times that not with the .44 Special than the .44 Magnum without the severe bone-joint pounding.

Heck, even the mythical Harry Callihan uses .44 Special Rounds in his .44 Magnum (as stated in Magnum Force to rookies at target range) for better control.
