Max,
I was not referring to the first set of guys in the film, shooting at the indoor range. I was referring specifically to Towsley.
There was no doubt about the first group. That gun had some obvious sharp recoil. Towsely's however was pretty exceptionally light in the recoil department. I have large bore handguns, including ported and non ported Redhawks, and what I observed did not look like he was shooting the same power loads you guys were. Not even close. More like 454 Casull vs .45 Colt.
