Roger,
Some think the rubber “cushions” the recoil. My objection to rubber grips was they could not be snugged to the frame to prevent shifting while firing. On my competition revolvers, I would get two separate but overlapping groups. Enough dispersion to keep me out of the top tier. Once I understood the problem, I switched back to wood!
