when i owned a 50ae, the 44mag felt like a 38spl. the 357 felt like a 22.
is 10 years a record?
is 10 years a record?
start by filling in the sinus behind the trigger guard with new grips. i have put many rounds through a redhawk and a bisley. with proper grips, I had no problem.
That said, nobody could hyperbole like skeeter.
I have never understood the fascination with excessive noise, muzzle blast & recoil, Oh well!Yes! The first cylinder full. Declines rapidly after that. As said above .44 Special is great.

Hu-u-mmm, 3in 629? Garret 310 Hammer Head kills on both ends! no Thanks!I don't find the 44 mag. objectionable at all, but I also don't want to take one plinking 50-100 rounds, either. 9-10 gr, of Unique and a 240-250 gr, SWC are my preferred loads for having fun.
Back in the 90's I had a GF who was 5'1" 105 #'s, a tiny thing. I took her to the range and I was shooting my 7 1/2" SBH with full power hunting loads. I asked her if she wanted to try it. Sure! I said don't drop it. She shot the 1st one and cocked the hammer again, and again until she'd shot all 6. I asked her if she wanted to shoot it some more. Sure! It's a shame she was so crazy or she'd have been a keeper.
A friend wanted to know what I'd recommend for a defensive handgun when he'd ride trail bikes in the Rockies. I said a S&W 629-4 in 3" or 4". He got the 3". He asked what loads to put in it and I said Garrett's 310 gr. Hammerheads, so he bought a bunch of them. I think I'll pass on shooting them out of his 3" S&W LOL
