Is this thing going to break both of my wrists and knock me out?

I thought you were supposed to cup it under the cylinder? Quoted:

Grip the barrel with your left hand for more support. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile In for the results of this and OPs new screen name "STUMPY"

Meh. That muzzle brake on the end is VERY effective. Firing .460 ammo, the recoil is comparable to firing hot .357 ammo through a 4-inch barreled gun.
454 Casull is like maybe a 44Spl Touching off a 45LC round will make you think the gun misfired. These are all just my opinions, however. |

The recoil on my 460V was actually not too bad. Certainly no worse that my 4in. 629 with full house loads.
HOWEVER, the damn muzzle blast is not unlike the concussion wave from throwing a stick of dynamite out about 30 yards and letting it go off. I'll never forget shooting mine out in the back yard one afternoon while my wife was napping. After I touched one off, she came running out the back door screaming. She thought I'd manage to blow up the propane tank or something similiar but she thought I was toast in any case. I was probably 40 yards from the house and she said she could feel the house shake like when it thunders after a close lightning strike. ETA: Be sure to keep your weak hand back away from the cylinder gap when firing. Some poor sap blew one of his fingers off (almost) from the flame. |
