my buddies Anaconda liked everything we threw at it. jack the loads up as hot as you could, it did not care. this is my S&W 329PD, it is a titanium 44 Magnum, no porting with a 4" barrel. Only weighs 26 oz empty.
Believe it or not, the recoil is nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be. :-D. The fireball that barfs out that small barrel is a sight to behold too, lol.
Still waiting on the permit. It takes about 90 days or so.
