Is this the one gun that could "do it all"!!!

Light gun + .44 Magnum = OUCH!!!!! I have a hard time w/ a whole box of 158gr .357 magnums thru my 6" 686.

not for me.
 
I got to shoot the 329PD at my local gun range. It has much recoil but it is such a cool gun. I also like the wooden grips. If I was in the market for a large caliber revolver the 329 would be my first choice.
 
I've shot my friend's 329. Its a real nice gun especially with Blazer 44 specials. Its got a hefty recoil with 180 gr and 240 magnums, but if you dump the lousy wood grips or Houge monogrips grips I've seen some with, and get some Pachmeyer decellerators the gun really isn't bad.

With the right grips I would think this gun would make a excellent woods gun especially in damp or humid conditions. Its light, corrossion resistant, and accurate.

If I wasn't actually hunting I'd probably carry it with specials and a couple of speedloaders of magnums. Although I prefer the 3 inch trailboss 629 you could do a whole lot worse than a 329 as an all around woods gun.
 
I have two OLD S&W 24 and a 2 1/2 inch 44 mag

I dont shoot MAG;s in the 29, and mostly I cary the 4 inch 24 which is a special if you dont know.
The reasion for caring the 44 sp is controlability. With out a lot of traning that second shot with a light 44 mag will take hours, (Im kidding). But shooting somthing like 44 sp in Winchester silver tips are like shooting a 38 in a mod 19. If you think a 44 sp is a light weight round shoot one into a gallon jug of water and see for your self the energy. For my self the main reasion that I would pick the MAG is not for the energy, but for the resale value.
What your handling is a very good gun, but trust me some one that has a lot of 44's, you'll be a better shot and in much better controle with sepcials.
I also own a Charter arms BULL DOG in 44. I wore one out learning to handle the recoil.
