It's 8oz more than a 6.5" redhawk. So with a 10" barrel I think that's pretty light

I shot it enough today to zero it and kill a groundhog.

I just randomly picked a load....imr 4227 and a sierra 240.

I only shot it at 50 yds and shots were just touching.

Bag pressure and grip will be different with this vs the 357. The 357 I let free recoil and it really doesn't move.
The 44 has some mild recoil and the muzzle rises about 3-4" off the bags with a one hand hold and one hand on the bag.

Follow through I have always found to be key with the wheel guns...I'll have to perfect the different hold with this one to really shrink the group. Won't take much but I'm slightly swamped with work and I'm trying to get ready for Wyshot.

I will do some shooting with it in video at Wyshot. Poor pdogs....
