[QUOTE="AKGuide, post: 924856, member: 64701"] I have had my 454 since I was 16, and yes it is a chore to shoot if you aren't used to the type of recoil this cartridge generates. Although, if you do purchase this gun I would recommend a pachmayr grip to replace the stock one. It is much softer, has finger grooves, takes the sting out of the pistol, and also protects your middle finger from getting beat up by the trigger guard. The 454 super redhawk is way more versatile than the 44 mag. You can shoot 45lc cowboy loads to practice and load them as P+ colt loads with numerous cast lead bullets (I recommend cast performance) to practice getting used to the recoil (buffalo bore offers P+ colt loads with the 300 grain speers). When you are ready to lay the hammer down load some casull brass with 265, 300 or 325 a-frames. My favorite loads for my casull are 325 a-frames and 360 grian cast performance gas checks.
