I sold my 458 Socom,a 45-70 has more power and it bothered me to shoot the same bullets at too slow speeds.
Recoil is very subjective. I feel a Raging Bull 454 Casull is more punishing than an X-frame 500. Even a hot 44 SBH can hurt. A 500 is more like a push... until you go to +50k psi/ 600 grains. Then it's hilarious.
