Hi All,
So after accumulating a pretty good collection of handguns I felt that I was in the market for a big bore hand cannon. Biggest caliber in my colection to date is a Ruger Redhawk in .44 Magnum.
I purchased the DE on Saturday along with two boxes of Speer ammuntion in 300 grains and 325 grains.
Today I went out and shot a box of the 300 grain ammo. Recoil was stout but no where near unbearable. The grip is huge but it is not too difficult since you are holding on to the gun with two hands. The biggest issue I had was brass hitting me in the forehead. According to Magnum Research's website this is caused by allowing the gun to torque to the left while shooting. I will continue to work on my grip.
Next I will need to buy some reloading dies because buying factory ammo will cause me to go broke.
I know that lots of people say that this is one of the stupidest guns ever made, but I enjoyed it and it is far from my first purchase. One day I will add a Trijicon RMR red dot sight and take it deer hunting after I hone my skills!
