I had that Pedersoli with the 39" barrel you have Bronko. It was barrel heavy but I shot it ok and my back was bothering me more back then. I haven't broken my back in about 1 1/2 years and it's feeling better. I just need to keep from breaking it again and I should be fine.

This kills me too. I was always in great shape all my life and now old age is trying to beat me down. I won't let it. Here's me at 42 years old.
