After taking my two new SP101's to the range yesterday and putting several rounds of 357 magnums through them in 125 & 158 gr. loads, I am thinking of maybe getting both of them ported. Recoil was not painful at all but any reduction in mussel flip and recoil would be welcomed.
One them is DAO only with a 2.25-inch barrel and came with a Crimson Trace Overmold grip. The other has a Hogue grip and has a 3.5-inch barrel.
I have had one SP101 with the Wiegland Hydra-Port that Gemini now offers and another with the Magna-Port. I wasn't too impressed with either as far as my perceived recoil reduction was concerned. Was wondering if anyone had any experienced with the two style of porting that Pinnacle High Performance's offers. In particular the Tornado Cone porting.
I also tried out my recently acquired Chiappa Rhino with the 2.2-inch barrel. Not only could I tell very little difference in recoil between it and the Rugers, I could barely keep it on the target. I don't think I have ever shot any pistol or revolver that printed so high from the sighting hold. You would have to aim at someone's knees to hit them in the chest.
Thanks for any in-put and comments.
