Think powerful handguns are great if you are not shooting them. I find the 44 mag in my redhawk to be the limit for me. I did fire exactly two shots from a 450 casull. That was enough fun at the time. Frank

I love this photo, a Colt .45-70 (from the link)

Suicidal.

If a .44 won't do it I don't want to be there.

My favorite is the S&W 500 Magnum. I usually shoot 25 - 50 rounds when I go to the indoor range. Some people come over and ask to try it. I don't load 'full power' loads but damn close to it ;-) I also love my newly acquired Ruger Super Alaskan 44 Magnum and my old Ruger GP100 357 Magnum.

i got the opportunity to play with one of those smith 500's once.
the recoil was surprisingly manageable.
my raging bull 454 is not near as bad as i thought it would be either.
those smiths are beautiful but i cant afford two hand cannons...

Interesting that the picture of the Desert Eagle states the .50 AE but shows a .44 Mag in the picture.

Hmmm, I'll pass.

I had a Contender with a .45-70 10" barrel...

Wish I had never sold it...

.44 Mag SBH 7.5 W/ 429-421 19gr. 2400 is plenty for me.

You can always count on the news media to get it wrong.

If a 44 cant handle it, carry an 870 and be done with it...
