I`m what you might call a big bore fan. I have .44 mags., 2 .454`s and a .500 S&W. For the money spent I don`t think you can beat a Ruger Super Black Hawk. I would replace the trigger spring on it as I like lite triggers, still worth the money. The .454 Red Hawk has some serious recoil, about like the Freedon Arms and both could use a good set of ruber grips. The Rageing Bull is a rageing pussy cat, less recoil that a Black Hawk .44 mag. but it is very heavy. The .500 S&W has very lite recoil for what your pushing, but it also is very heavy. For your first big bore handgun I would recomand the .44 Super Black Hawk. Even with a triger job, which you may not want, it`s the most for the money, and most of them are pretty accurate, probibly alot better than you`ll be able to shot it. The 629 Smith`s are good too, but I prefer the Black Hawk for hunting, and the 629 is my carry gun.
