Here's mine and sounds like buckfvr has the same one, I like it alot, the Tracker only holds 5 rounds mine holds 6, I've put about 40rds through mine with no probs and yes it has some pinch but is very manageable.

I've got the same gun pictured with a 6.5" ported barrel.  I love it shoots like a dream never had any problems.

What do think about the Porting?
Had the 608 8 shot .357mag, ported.  Last ported handgun I will ever buy.

It started falling apart, pins coming out, sloppy lock up at about 800 rounds, scary sloppy.   It was 1994-95  I hear they got better.

The next one will be the same as I still regret selling.  S&W 629Classic 5inch.  $650

I have had 2 44 mags raging bulls from Taurus and I won't be buying another. First one, the barrel blew in half, second, the cylinder started free spinning after a few shots.  I know I probably had lemons cause I have heard good things about taurus, but that's my experience with em and I always like hearing about bad reviews when I buy a new gun.  Hope your experience is better than mine.

I shot a friend's Taurus .357mag. Thing would fire a few rounds, heat up, then the firing pin wouldn't strike the round's primer until it took a few minutes to cool down. I would take one if it were free but wouldn't bother trusting my life with one.  :twocents:

This 450ti is the most abusive handgun I have ever fired in my life. It is a 19oz. 45lc+p it would buck so hard it could only shoot 3 of 5 shots before pulling the 365gr bullets. It stayed tight and the finish is very good. But I have seen a lot less love in their more common guns.

Did you put on the ones that come with it, or the xframe? The x is the best thing I ever did to mine.

Ruger is great with customer service. I put some target grips on my Super Black Hawk for a while, when I decided to go back to the original western grips I couldn't find them. :yike: I looked up the part number in my owners manual, sent the check for the amount and got new grips and my check back. Nice!  :tup:
times before with just leather, wool and cotton.
