It all depends on what grips are on it, physical weight, whether it's ported or not, etc. I would guess revolver so it'll probably feel like 40-50% more recoil than a .45acp. If it has rubber grips you can deduct 15-20% felt recoil. The recoil of an .44mag is VERY easy to control, and is over rated. Quit worrying and enjoy shooting.
