Welcome to the Forum. I have shot 2 3/4" to 83/8", I have found that the 4" is the most comfortable to shoot ( less Recoil ) than the longer barrels. The 4 & 2 3/4" are the easiest to carry and provide me with good accuracy @ 50 yds and under with open sights. 350 XTP's shoot very nice out of all of the guns. If you start going to 500 gr- 700 gr your best with 6" or longer, the heavies start to tumble out of the 4 & 2 3/4. If you enjoy the 44 mag, I would believe you would enjoy the 500, and as everyone stated, RELOAD!. Be Safe,
