Considering how plentiful .44 Mag and .44 Special brass and ammo is, and how scarce .44 Russian brass and ammo is, I don't see any logical reason to shoot .44 Russian out of a .44 Magnum revolver.

That may or may not be true now but it wasn't true about a year ago. I got totally frustrated hitting Midway and Graf's virtually every day and no .44 Special brass. Over and over again for months. Then I noticed they had Starline .44 Russian brass in stock and for a good price. And RCBS Cowboy dies to reload it. So I bought the brass and the dies and my several .44 Specials were able to start shooting instead of just being admired!
Cute little round when you load some up. You do end up with a bit of a jump to the forcing cone out of a .44 Special so I wouldn't expect Camp Perry accuracy. And that would be even worse in a .44 Magnum although I haven't tried that in any of mine.
