I own both now. I bought the 41 first, by several years, after considering both.
I opted for it because I could get a light, compact gun that was still controllable (Taurus TI Tracker). The 44s I was considering at the time were all larger frames, and significantly heavier.
Of course now I have a 329PD so we'll see how my opinion changes. I can handle full-power 41Mag loads in the little Tracker, though I don't shoot many of them to spare wear and tear on the gun. I kind of doubt I would want to shoot full power loads with 300gr+ bullets out of the 329PD.
I hope some day to have steel deer hunting guns in BOTH calibers.
