I didn't realize you were talking midsize

I would stay below 300 grains in that one.

You could always search out a blue steel blackhawk, they are very lightweight for their size and you can push them pretty far. Make no mistake a 300+ grain bullet with a stiff load of 296 has substantial recoil.

It's expensive but the FA97 in .45Colt can handle everything you throw at it.
