Been eyeing this (Taurus 44 mag Ultralite), and the S&W 329PD for a couple years now. Picked this over the S&W because I couldn't stomach the ~$400 premium for the 329.
At 28 ounces, I expected it to be pretty terrible on recoil, and while it's not exactly light on recoil, it's really not that bad (I do love big recoiling pistols though). With 44 specials, it's a ***** cat. With mags, hold on tight.
One issue I'm having is ejection is a little sticky with mags. Not so bad I have to use a dowel to knock them out with, but the brass does stick some. Read of this problem after placing my order for it. I might send it back to Taurus after hunting season and let them fix it, or may work on it myself.
Overall though, even with the ejection issue, I think I'm in love with it!
