My Freedom Arms Model 83 (.44 magnum, 7.5" octagonal barrel, Leupold VX-3) is for deer hunting while the Model 97 (.44 special, 4.25" barrel, honed action, fiber optic front sight, round butt grip and frame) is for hiking (lots of hungry black bear in my neck of the woods). For my needs, the Simply Rugged "Chesty Puller" system makes it easily switch holsters depending on my needs and the oxblood color looks great to my eyes.
When I'm out of handloads I'll use Underwood 245gr flat nosed in magnum and special for these, very comparable to my "Elmer" handloads with the exception of the flat nosed rather than semi wadcutters.
