Well, I acquired a new Dan the other day and am very happy with it. A very nice Norwich First Issue 7445 in the original box with all the tools and paperwork. I still have not located any 445 ammo but in time hopefully. I have four boxes of Dan Wesson 445 ammo but do not want to shoot that.

Shoot 44 mags & Specials in it. Just be sure to scrub the cylinders before using 445s

You're going to have to find someone that reloads to be able to affordably shoot 445sm. Most gun clubs have a reloaders group that teach reloading. If you approached someone in the club, especially if its your gun club, you may be able to get someone to load some for you and teach you at the same time. I've seen it many times. 44 mag dies are all you really need, just need adjustment.
It's worth exploring.
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

That's a nice gun - the Norwich guns in any caliber are my favorites. Bob did such a nice job on these original Norwich guns and they are certainly in a class of their own during the Dan Wesson history timeline.

I whole heartedly agree with DakotaJack. But especially the small frame guns.

That is beautiful! I love First Issues! You never see those come up for sale! I have to get out to some local gun shows here in Phoenix. Can't always count on Gunbroker. Buffalo Boar has 445 Ammo the only place I have found it. Very pricey $3.20 each but worth it to me. I shot my 445 for the first time on Thanksgiving and what a rush!!! It should have a string you pull since it shoots like a cannon!

Thanks much for the information and interest and comments on my new 7445. I think at that pricing I will wait and see if further availability comes around, but thanks much.

I'm saving my 445s and ammo for the coming extraterrestrial alien invasion. Actually, all this nonsense is the US trying to hide the facts of our TR-3B gravity canceling space plane.
