Hi Brother, I am a longtime user of the Charter Arms .44 Special Bulldogs, especially the Classic 3'' bbl. I never use any .44 spl that exceeds 1000fps at the muzzle and I like to keep the muzzle energy in the 400ft-lbs area. That has long been my rule. You will see especially on Buffalo Bore warnings except for the rounds they make inclusively for the bulldog. CCI aluminum Speer JHP, Silvertips and a few others like the regular Speer Gold Dot still get you better than the cowboy shooting rounds and have saved my life, literally. I usually go with 200 grain JHPs. Good luck! Mike ''CUJO" P.
Nope, I wouldn’t shoot it the Bulldog. The light frame won’t handle these 190gr hotter loads.
Too much for the Charter Arns Bulldog. These should be considered a +P round. I shoot them from a Taurus Tracker with great results. Get the Ruger GP in .44 special or the Smith & Wesson .44 Special to take heavier loads. The Taurus is decent and also fires .44 Magnum when you need them.
