In the latest Handloader magazine (I will try to find a link) Venturino declares the 44 revolver is dying.
"There will never be a great resurgence of 44 popularity. As old timers such as myself pass on, the younger generations will focus on autoloaders - mostly black ones. So yes, I think the great 44s of America are dying."
He says basically that he's hung his 44s up and they probably will never be shot again because he won't shoot them for pleasure. He says he does like the 44 special but he doesn't think it's any more accurate than the 45 Colt.
Always knew there was something about him I didn't like
