I have but one 44 that is perfect for my needs. I have never run factory ammo through my M69. The true magnums are still within book specs with 2400. Those are the woods/ hunting loads. Very accurate.

Most of my shooting of 44 is 10 gr Unique in mag cases. Enough boom to satisfy me with pleasant recoil.

It’s my first and only 44, no regrets.

Not really interested in 44spl a a carry gun, that’s what my Sig 220 and 220c are for.
