[QUOTE="left handed gun, post: 1920219, member: 75858"] I cannot speak from direct experience with Grizzlies. But I have a S & W .44 Mag Mountain Gun, in stainless. stainless, with a tapered barrel. Pretty accurate at 5-20 yards. "Pretty accurate" meaning, it will hit what you are aiming at with the first shot. If you want to benchrest it on bags and make a group you can brag about, you'd probably want to put .44 specials in it. Recoil is pretty stout compared to a .357 S & W L frame. Maybe not that much worse than lighter, say, K-frame S & W with a hot .357 load. But any way about it, not a gun most people would enjoy taking to the range and putting a box of 50 through it. Despite the tapered bbl., it is heavy. On plus side, it is fairly resistant to weather and you never feel like you are not carrying enough pistol. If I ever get to take my fly fishing dream vacation to Alaska, I plan to take it. And also plan to hire a guide who puts you on fish, has a nose for bears, and limps like Chester in Gunsmoke, so I can at least outrun him:D. [/QUOTE]
