All that weight and that heavy full under lug barrel tamed those magnums nicely.

I can't possibly say you are wrong.... BUT... I am one of those guys who puts oodles of Magnum rounds through my Magnum revolvers.
At the risk of sounding like a braggard, I really don't feel recoil.
EXCEPT for my Scandium/Titanium 360 Magnum revolver.
That stings a bit.
Just to put a cherry on this sundae, One of my very first duty weapons was a 2 1/2 inch model 19 stoked with 125 grain Magnum ammunition.
When we shot things.... They stayed shot.
