Anybody have this gun?

Looking for reviews. Ultimately I would like to buy a Contender, but anybody that's hunted with me knows that I usually use more then one shot.

I bought a Taurus judge 3in mag with 6.5 inch barrel the last week of rabbit season and patterned it with both 2.5 and 3in, you would have to be lucky to kill one over 12 yards. The rifling just opens the pattern up way too much. I having a sleeve put in it where I can have a decent enough pattern to effectively kill a rabbit at 20 yards.
