Rocky is spot on about getted beaned by one of these handcannons, and you don't have to be a novice either. Saw a show on the history channel a week or so ago about guns, magnums in particular. Jan Libourel, the famous writer shot a 454 and it dang near got away from him.
It's amazing how fast things change. I remember back in the day when the .44 magnum was some mysterious monster and how people would refuse to shoot it if offered the chance for fear of compound fractures to the extremities. Now, the .44 is almost mild compared to some of the stuff out there. Now the use to be lowly .45 Colt has even surpassed the .44. Nope, the .44 and .45 are plenty big enough for me. I still like muscle cars though
