With the handguns you have, I'd start with a 44mag. The recoil facts are:
A 3#, 357 revolver, pushing 158s @ 1100 will give you 9.5fps of recoil velocity and 4.2 foot pounds of recoil energy. A 5#, 500 Smith, pushing 440s @ 1600 will give you 22.8fps of recoil velocity and 40.6 foot pounds of recoil energy. If you can handle twice the recoil, great. If you haven't spend much time with large caliber revolvers, start with a 45 Colt or 44 Mag.
