I have the 445 blue, 2" and I like it. I WISH I'd only paid $200 for it! Great deal on a good gun I think you'll like. I've only shot factory and a few "cowboy" handloads through it - all with 200 gr. bullets. I can keep a 3-4" group @15 yrds off-hand, and it's darn close to POA with all loads (except the cowboy handloads) so far. Get it - if you don't like it you'll be able to sell it easily for what you have into it
