I'm shooting my 629 better than ever, handling factory type 240gr loads going about 1250 or so from a 4" barrel. It is loads of fun, and I'm proud that I worked up to shooting them well.
I guess recoil is like spicy food, in that once you have something hotter, you realize what you previously ate wasn't all that spicy.
So, what next? A 460 or a 500 magnum? Or a Freedom Arms 454? This is purely for the fun of it, no hunting. The paper and the backstop don't care. But by those criteria, a 22lr is overkill. I don't want to beat up my poor 629 shooting any loads heavier than factory 240's...
