I think you did the right thing. If you want to reduce recoil a little you can purchase some 135gr. Federal Hydra-Shok "PD" cartridges. They have a little less recoil. I shoot them a lot. Very accurate. I was talking to a local police officer and he told me that the .40 caliber, H-S "PD" is all he uses. His exact reply to me was, "I can hit better with them". I believed him.

P.S. Oh. Take a look at Haugen Handgun Leather. Beautiful holsters! If you need the website, just send me an e-mail and I'll send it to you. Jerry Evans makes a "SOB" holster that rides a little higher than others. I was recently reading the comments in his guest book and it seems a fellow went into a convience store to make a purchase. He was wearing the SOB. As he left, a mugger was waiting. He ran out and "kidney punched" the shopper. (A tactic that had obviously worked well for him before.) POW! The mugger's fist went into the holster and pistol, hard! He obviously broke his knuckles and ran off "yelping" to a waiting car. The pistol saved the honest fellow and he didn't even have to draw! Kinda cracked me up!
