I've never personally had a Charter Arms, but I know a couple of people who have newer ones that they've been happy with (a Mag Pug .357 and a Professional .32 H&R). I have toyed with the idea of one of the newer Bulldogs as a backup to my current primary carry gun (Ruger SP101 .357) as I've taken to carrying a pair of revolvers over the last year or so (current BUG is a S&W 442). If I ever do get a Bulldog or other small frame .44 Special, I'd probably load with with the same Hornady or Underwood ammo I keep around for my Blackhawk. It would get lighter practice ammo, however, as the Skeeter load is, as I understand it, a bit too warm for Charters.
