The earth shakers are definitely out for me. 454, 460 S&W, 475 linebaugh? I've shot them in the past, but that man no longer exists, except sometimes in my imagination. I am just shy of 70, and I have bad wrists from a cycling accident. For me, anything over the 44 mag is out, and even those I limit to 250 grain boolits and 20 grains of 2400. Heavier loads are for younger fellows.
