Default Magnum Research Lone Eagle pistol?

Has anyone in here ever shot a Magnum Research Lone Eagle pistol in large caliber with the muzzle brake? Can you tell me about recoil and accuracy?

I'm interested in possibly finding one for whitetail. We have to usea straight-walled case, so my only options are 45-70 and .444.

The thing that has me going is that my 45-70 levergun kicks a bit with hot loads. So,I cannot even imagine it being possible to hang onto those loads in a pistol like this. Does the muzzle brake really handle the recoil that much? Or is this thing going to fly out of my hand if I don't hang on tight?

The reason I want this is mainly because thecost ofa S&W .460 is too much for me right now.

By the way, is any calibersmaller in a pistol interchangeable with the .444 cartridge, like .44 mag for example?

Thanks.
