Jim, may the good Lord have a mercy on our wrists as we grow old. Reminds me of some of the photos of Hal Swiggett shooting the kickers.

I have never used a Casull. The Ruger .480 in a Super Redhawk is my most powerful gun.

I tried so hard to learn to shoot the .454 Casull, but I just couldn’t do it. .44 mag is my limit for accurate shooting.

Truth is for me, my Uberti EL PATRON in 45 colt is enough.
if I need something more, have my RUGER SECURITY SIX, 357.
for autos, 45 acp, 9 mm, 38 super, and 380

My wrists hurt just looking at the picture!

I was a recoil junkie... 30+ years ago (Y2K is now! :lol: )
