Here on the ranch I usually carry my Ruger .44 Blackhawk, Always on horseback. Everywhere else I carry my S&W Model 29, 4-inch except once in a while when I am dressed in very light or formal suits, I carry my S&W model 36.
My wife carries one of her two revolvers in each of her special made/modified purses. More than half the time she carries her Charter Arms .44 Special for the reason that it is her lightest. Otherwise she carries her S&W Model 24, .44 special.
All of our .44's are loaded with the same U429421 hard cast bullets, lubed with pure beeswax, loaded as cast without sizing, using different powders to match the revolvers to be loaded. I load the .44 specials with Unique Powder to get about 850 to 900 FPS velocity with the 250 Gr bullets. I load the .44 Mags with H2400 Powder to get about 1200 FPS velocity with the same bullets.
I carry the Model 36 loaded with commercial wad cutters.
