Actually this fellow is a terrific shot who has posted some amazing
firearm vids, if you are into that sort of thing.

He did get a snack out of this shoot.

It was interesting how fast it shed the energy on the watermelons

I'd be reluctant to shoot and waste a tasty watermelon!

I'm not sure what the hell you'd want a revolver that size for, other
than shooting watermelons. It sure isn't something you'd be able to
handle quickly and properly if you were in Alaska and were about to be
eaten by a huge bear or a Palin.

I am not sure why you couldn't handle it quickly. The follow up shot
may be a bit slower but you should be able to get on target pretty
quickly if you handle the gun enough to be comfortable with it.

This is the kind of gun that almost demands that you reload.
You could load up some stuff at .45 ACP ballistics to get used to
pointing the gun, then load full power to get used to the recoil, if
that is possible.

It's not that bad and there are YouTube videos of women shooting it with
one hand!

It is still not something I would like to shoot a lot with full power
loads. That is particularly true if I was just doing point and shoot
drills.
I agree you should do some training with the full power load but a lot
is just as effective with a reduced charge. Cheaper too since you
could shoot cast bullets at subsonic speeds.

I have shot one several times. Its angry. Especially at $3. A pull

I think I'd be more suitable for a rifle cartridge myself

I suppose if you are a "collector" of S&W revolvers, it is one you might
like to have. I've watched a handful of videos of "professional"
shooters firing it off at various targets, and it doesn't seem as if it
were much fun to shoot...really heavy revolver, lots of recoil and
muzzle flip, loud, expensive ammo. We don't have much "grizz" around
here, and if I really needed a revolver for "defense," I think my .357
MAG is more than sufficient.

$3 a pop for ammo? Now *that* is a giggle.

You would need a bloated 'Uncle Sam' pension to afford that ammo.
