Jamie, I don't know about the Taurus Judge... I admit it looks and sounds like a powerful home defense type weapon but it just doesn't prove to be accurate on the range. It basically is a hand held 410 shot gun with a 2 to 4 inch barrel. It appears to be a good car gun (under 7 feet) but does not perform well at 7 yards (21 feet). When one looks at the load, 410 close range you say Wow ! But on the range it is not too good and does not present itself well. The most popular round is a Winchester 410 with 3 - 9mm balls. At 7 yards only 2 of the balls hit the silhouette target... that's pretty bad ! Our 5ers are longer then the accuracy range of the Taurus Judge ! If someone breaks in and has a single shot rim fire, he could be the victor... In the end, I think getting one projectile in the kill zone would be much more effective and without all the noise and smoke... JMO
