OK, I know the title of this thread is a bit confusing- Sorry, I am trying to get to a conclusion in my thinking and would appreciate some help.
I recently fired 50 rounds through a S&W (range rental) lightweight, 5 shot revolver. This was my first experience shooting a lightweight snub. The rounds were reloads from the range (I had to shoot their bullets in their gun, which makes sense to me). Anyway, the shells were full wadcutters, and I am guessing probably a bit light in load, to save wear and tear on the gun. The point is, the recoil HURT-
Does an all steel frame snub nose reduce recoil significantly? If so, what options do I have in gun selection?
Thanks!
