.45 Super pressures are much higher than .45 ACP +P

With all that said, which big revolver with a big cartridge is the most comfortable to shoot. I know this is subjective, but I still want to hear your thoughts. I reload so I can load as mild or hot as I want.
Model 57, .41 mag. A 4" is just so nice. Easy load from wild to mild, and your not just one of the crowd. I wouldn't recommend it to a non loader. But for a hand loader it's a very versatile round.
Visuited a friend's gun shop today. He called before the holidays and in conversation mentioned he had just taken in a S&W Model 28. I asked him to hang on to it till after the holidays. I looked at it this morning and took it home. Merry Christmas to me.The Smith Model 28 Highway Patrolman fit that bill perfectly.
I accidentally overloaded Titegroup by 5 grains once
I want a BIG revolver. A "N" frame, "X" frame, redhawk, etc...
In .357 or .44 mag or .460 or .500 or whatever.
Purely a range gun.

My only experience with any of the above:
.357 Colt Trooper mark III with a 4" barrel - Not horrible, but was the "sharpest" kicking handgun I have ever shot
.44 mag Ruger Vaquero with a 7" barrel - Kicked very hard but was not as "Sharp" as the .357
.44mag Model 29 with a 6 1/2" barrel - Kicked very hard but was manageable. Probably the most comfortable one of the three listed.
I know Wesson lengthed the 357 to 1.41" for the 360DW but has anyone done the same with the 44? Doing that and pumping up the pressure to +P psi would make for a nice thumper in an extremely versatile gun.
