Default My 21st b-day present with some questions

Ok guys this is my b-day present my dad got for my 21st b-day! Its a Model 329PD Revolver that weighs 26 ozI. brought it to the range and shot it a bunch of times but each time it was low and OMG the mag rounds kickd hard. I was shooting 44 S&W special 200grain semi wad cutter hollow points. I brought it home and put the bore sighter in btu couldnt get it to go any higher. I called S&W and they said the bore sighter wasnt lying and that i need to shoot 240grain 44 magunm. I guess the gun is bore sighted low bc of the recoil the guy expalined that the recoil will make the gun shoot higher. He said if i want to shoot speicals i need to send it back and theyll put a smaller front sight on it,but the manual says 44mag/44 special. Does this Sound right to any of you pistol guys???????? Should i just shoot the 44 mags threw it to be accurate? I want to use it manly for hunting.
