My daughter just recently bought one.  While she has yet to shoot it, I have.  I loaded up some of my home cast bullets, a Lee 358-150, which with the lube weighed out to about 146gr.  I loaded them with 3.2 Of Bullseye and got 1.5" groups at 10 yards, using a sandbag rest.  Nice gun, I have no complaints with it at all.  The only thing I wonder about is how it would hold up shooting +P loads in it.

It's a good enough gun that I would not hesitate to buy myself one if I were in the market for another 'snubbie'.

I have a Taurus 85.  I really like mine.  I've been loading a lot of 158 SWC in front of 5.8 grains of Accurate Arms #5.
