I've got a Rossi R44102 - the same gun as the TALO 2.5" barrel Taurus Tracker, but blued. I've been shooting it with Trailboss loads in magnum cases, which are nice .44 special level recoil loads. I've also acquired a simply Rugged sourdough pancake holster for it, which I plan to carry it in as backup during this year's deer season; I will be loading mid-range magnums in it for this purpose.
Like most, I can't say I really care much for the "ribber" grips that are on the pistol, so I'd like to replace them. I'm thinking of getting some of the VZ Grips for the Taurus LFR (I have confirmed with VZ that they will fit). Product pages here: https://vzgrips.com/shop-all/revolvers-grips/taurus-lfr-grips/
Should I go with the 320 (smooth) texture, or the Operator II (dimple cuts and grooves). Most folks suggest smooth grips for .44 mag revolvers, but the VZ tech suggested I go with the textured, and that they can be sanded smoother where necessary to avoid destroying my hands. Thoughts? I'm not planning on shooting too much of the real heavy stuff, but keeping in at hot .44 special levels for the most part.
Once I decide and purchase, pictures will (of course) be posted. I will be a bit of a trailblazer, as I cannot find a picture of a short-barreled tracker with these grips anywhere online. I'm partial to the black or cherry colors, by the way.
