I doubt that at SD/HD distances and under the stress of a intrusion, that the small amount of accuracy lost using .44 special ammo in a .44 mag would be moot....especially using factory ammo. If you are experiencing poor accuracy using a particular brand/type of .44 special in your .44 mag, my guess would be it's just that brand/type of ammo and how it shoots from your gun and not the extra .1'' jump to the throats. Me, I'd quit worrying about trying to find a factory loaded round in a .44mag-p configuration and just load my own.
