I am looking for a double action revolver for my wife that can take hot .45LC loads. I am also looking hard at the Taurus Judge series pistols and I was wondering if anyone knows how hot I can safely load ammo for it? I would like something that I could load for bear and still use for personal defense. Can the Judge series pistols do that?
Another related question: Can 3-inch mag .410's in 00 stop bear sized aggressive animals (assuming shot placement, etc.), or would I be better off loading a really hot LC with a 300gr SWC - say in the ball park of 1500-1700fps - in such a gun?
