I traded for a NIB Taurus Tracker 44 mag today,
Basically will be a 44spl - 44 Spl + P but with the ability to be stepped up to 44 mag
5 shot .. Cylinder diameter is basically the same as a S&W 69 .. It is listed as a 4 inch barrel.. but in reality the barrel 3.2 inches long .. when measured from the forcing cone to were the barrel ends ... the barrel shroud has porting and extends 1 inch more than the actual barrel... so the last inch of the barrel is a shroud with ports only ... odd ... but it is what it is ....On my scales it weighs 34oz on the dot ... stock ... so the barrel configuration may be a good thing with 44 mag loads ...
The cylinder diameter
Tracker 1.554 inches..
S&W 69 is 1.56 inches
Which in my book is equal
I do believe the Tracker frame size floats between the K and L frames which is a small window ..
Overall lockup is good , fit and finish is good
Trigger ... seems good ..
Those dreaded Ribber Grips ... fit my small hand well ...
