I own the Tracker 44 Mag. After getting home and reading the manual I found that you cannot use any hotter loads. After really looking closely I can see that the barrel isn't straight, and the cylinder is canted downward. The trigger isn't great, but that can fixed easily. It also hung up repeatedly when using Blazer 44 Spls.
On the flip side: Recoil with standard mags is very manageable considering it only weighs 34 oz. The finish is good, and the grips are great.
Were I to do it over again I'd have saved a few more pennies and looked harder for a used Redhawk.
