Try the wasp killer on a problem dog you know. See what happens.

I agree about not recommending the 9mm. That caliber is more of a people gun. I wouldn't go with anything smaller than a .45 which is what I carry only b/c I dont have a .44 mag yet.

I don't have the malice within me to do that.  What do they do?

Was at the airport, some magazine looking at stats put the 357 up there after shotgun.   Problem with a 44 at least for me I may get one shot.  More accurate and faster with 357, or how many rounds can you put in a bear in seconds with a 45 auto?

THE JUDGE!!! It is very good under presure because you can load a couple Winchester PDXI 410 shells in for quick, under pressure shooting, and then put a nice fat 250 grain .45 colt round in  :tup: The Judge does not have that much recoil either.

Really, because it has exploded throughout the gun world, and thousands of people love theirs. What happened with you because I love mine.

Why do you all like the Judge?


Piss poor weapon for bear defense, snake gun perhaps but truth tell I'd just soon step on a rattle and kill it then shoot it with a .410 out of a pistol.

I shot a Judge last weekend.  I was going to buy it from this guy apaprently it is a rather limited edition, aluminum frame with some really cool etching on it in all black.  For $400 I was going to peel off the bills but after shooting it the sale was lost.   Kicked like a mule, hurt the hand after a few, and was just a awful experience. 
It's a TIKKA thing..., you may not understand.

How about the Rossi Circuit Judge? Now thats a fun lil gun to shoot. Will you give that one any credit?
