Weenie.

Yes, Porting sounds like the way to go. This is my first 44 mag pistol and although i can handle the recoil, my main objective is to tighten up my groups at 100 yards. Thanks Spurgersalty! You know of anybody in the Houston area that could do the porting on the pistol?

I know Briley will do it.

You can also get add-on compensators that WILL have the same upward exhaust as SS is talking about, but you're probably talking about threading the barrel or other "destructive" means. Just porting is less effective, but easier to deal with.

I'm not sure how that's going to tighten up groups on a single action pistol? Any recovery is going to be " broken up" by cocking it..

I still say "weenie". It's just a .44.

Y'all have to remember, some folks aren't 6' tall/200 lbs. with large framed bodies.
It took me quite some time to work through the "recoil" issues of my SBH Hunter. I'm a slender guy, so the actions are magnified when I shoot due to less arm and wrist strength. As well as just being........a weeniehwell:
For the life of me though, I can't understand why I can shoot heavy recoiling rifles so much easier with no bad habits?

because shoulders are tougher than wrists...I have no problem shooting hot .454 rounds, up until about 7-8 rounds, maybe double that if it's on a bench.. Then it starts to hurt, and accuracy suffers. I used to get the same pains after a BUNCH of .45 ACP, had to wear wrist braces to shoot until I healed up.. We're talking thousands of rounds over a few days, back before I got married and put the brakes on such silliness..

That being said, I NEVER sunk so low as to get a compensated gun...

Actually, that's a lie. One .45 1911, am going to get my .38 super done sooner or later. I've considered having that .454 ported, just always had other stuff on the priority list. Not a high rounds-down-the-pipe gun, if you know what I mean..

When slinging insults around a 44 mag, don't use "weenie", use "punk." That's what Dirty Harry said, punk.

No, "punk"'s on the other side of the gun. "weenie" is on the back side. Dirty Harry never needed no portin'....

So, now Dirty Harry is a weenie?

Never seen somebody that tried so hard to misinterpret something.
