the judge is not rifled so it can shoot 410 shells I have one in the Defender model
At present, Taurus is offering six models of .45 Colt/.410 bore shotshell combination revolvers, if you count different finishes (blue or stainless) as separate models as Taurus does. Note that these are not "convertible" revolvers supplied with two cylinders; these Taurus revolvers fire both .45 Colt cartridges and .410 shotshells from the same cylinder.
The variations include "Tracker" models with 6" barrels in blue and stainless steel, similar models with 3" barrels in blue or stainless steel and an "ultra-light" version (at 22 ounces empty, not really) with a 3" barrel built on an aluminum alloy frame. These five models are all chambered for 2-1/2", .410 shotshells.
I have a Blackhawk in 45Colt and 45acp so I can only speak of it. It is one fine gun.
Have been told the Judge does not shoot accurate as it is trying to do 2 jobs and is ok for snakes.
With "Starline Cases" 45 Colt Can be loaded to 44 Mag spec. But only for use in TC and Ruger.
I am thinking A S&W 44 Mag. would suit your needs better to Hunt with, As it can be used full tilt and shot with low power loads as well.
The S&W 29 I have is quite accurate and is a joy to shoot with lower power loads and has a great trigger when used as a Single Action
Shooting with 215 Grain Cast - Gas Checked loads are very fun and "On Target"
Well, thanks for cutting and pasting verbatim an excerpt from chuck hawks that has nothing to do with this discussion.

Are you a spammer?
I will take Spammer for $300 Alex
I did shoot one once and wasn't impressed with the accuracy at 15 yards.
Buy the Ruger...
OR... if you don't plan on mounting a scope, have you looked at some of the cowboy action shooting guns? Cimmaron, Uberti, etc?
