Hello.
I always hear stories about the recoil of both the .357 magnum and .44 magnum. I have shot a .44 magnum before, but never a .357 magnum.
Anyway, how do they compare? The only calibers ive shot so far are .22LR, .22WMR, .38 special, 9mm, and .44 magnum. Personally, I could tell a big difference in recoil between the .44 magnum and my Glock 19, although the muzzle flip was very similar. It was still easy to shoot though, as I was shooting one handed with my weak and strong hands with pretty good accuracy.
So what can I expect from a .357 magnum, with a 2-4 inch barrel? (BTW the .44 was a 7 1/2 inch barrel).
Thanks!
