I own the revolver, you are asking about. A Ruger New Model Super Blackhawk .44mag with a 7 1/2" barrel. I also own another SBH, with a 5 1/2" barrel.
I find the SBH to have a lot less recoil than a DA .44mag (Redhawk, 629). I also find the SA SBH, to be more accurate than any DA revolver I own or have tried.
