.45 is a sweet round, not a lot of muzzle jump even from a short barrel. I've shot 4"bbl composite guns in 9mm and .40 that jumped more. Steel frame adds weight but makes for a well behaved short barrel pistol.

Have you been shooting that .338? I was expecting pics..... a year ago
I need to find someone I know with a commander sized .45 and try it out.
Negative on a .338 haha, I almost built one, went with a .308 due to lack of distance and cheaper to shoot. I have a friend with a 6.5x47 Lapua....

I will say, I do like the price point and look of some of the Springfields. I also am admiring some Kimber's and STI's...
