Jack,
I didn't mean to come off sounding like a smart@$$ or anything. xxero covered pretty well what I was getting at.

Grip and trigger pull repeatability are really important. Especially with a heavy hitter like the .44 mag.

I was flinching like a little girl with heavy loads in mine until I wussed out and bought another PAST shooting glove that actually fit. No more flinching and I could shoot more than 18 rounds without serious hand pain from full house loads.

PLUS, my groups off bags dropped down to one big hole at 25 yards - around 2 inches - and in the x ring.
