Smith & wesson round butt rubber tamer conversion monogrip - Hogue Smith & Wesson Round Butt Rubber Tamer Conversion Monogrip

I live and work in black bear and mountain lion country. When working in the forest, I carry a .44 magnum revolver. Prior to installing the grip, shooting factory .44 magnum rounds in my lightweight Smith & Wesson revolver was punishing. Since I do not reload, I don't have an option of shooting softer recoiling .44 magnum rounds. To avoid a painful experience, I quit shooting factory .44 magnum rounds. I reverted to shooting .44 special rounds in my revolver. After installing the rubber tamer grip, I returned to shooting 240 grain, factory rounds in my revolver. No hand pain with the new grips. Smith & Wesson would be wise to place the Hogue Rubber Tamer Monogrip on their short barrel .44 magnum revolvers.
