they do things differently there.

300 gr. 45 Colt loads in the Reeder Sixgunner.Com Special. Gary built 20 of the limited edition for the old Sixgunner.Com website when I was running that. I used that gun to take a nice Javelina.

This is from when I enjoyed shooting the .475 Linebaugh that John built me. The gun was quite accurate as shown by the target below ... which also demonstrates that at one time I thought I didn't mind the recoil.

I had fun using it to take more than a few hogs. This was the first, on Mark Hampton's Show-Me Safari's Game Ranch.

300 gr. loads from the Pachmayr Dominator in .44 Magnum. I have not seen one of these in a long time. Hal Swiggett loaned me his Dominator in 7mm-08. It was wonderfully accurate. He had 10 loads that would stay under 1" at 100 yards.

The days of hard-recoiling handguns are pretty much past for me anymore. But there are still plenty guns to shoot!
