    I'm the same way, Tom. I prefer Smiths and not Rugers but that's another matter. The SA Rugers do not fit me. With recoil they spins around in my hand like crazy, and the middle finger get smacked by the trigger guard. On SRH or Smiths I get another grip on the gun and it behaves better with recoil.

    In the .480 SBH I don't think the recoil is all that bad. I usually shoot the 400 lee with a full charge of AA#9. A wrap of hockey tape around my middle finger helps. Hang onto it Like your driving a pole barn spike. Be deliberate. Show it who is boss and it will be your friend!
