[QUOTE="marksman1941, post: 2869176, member: 68542"] I packed a 329 for about 6 years before trading it for a Marlin 1894 in .44. We don’t have grizz where I moved to, and I didn’t need the horsepower. Shooting specials is a breeze, and some of the heavier rounds like HSM 305gr bear loads sucked but I could normally get 3 on target at 15 yards (about 4” group) and I’d invariably put the last 3 about a foot low. The game changed when I tried the Buffalo bore “low recoil” 255gr specially designed for the 329. That mofo kicked so hard it engaged the hammer lock on the second shot. Seized up the whole **** revolver. I shot 5 total and gave the box to my brother for his Blackhawk to eat. I guess my point is the 329 is great for a lightweight setup where you can’t afford the extra ounces but need something stout. If you can pack bigger, and get more on target, it’s worth going that route. [/QUOTE]
