What grip is on the LCR?
Strangely enough, my Crimson Trace grips treat me better than the factory LCR Hogue grip.
Unless you're a recoil sensitive person, I'd give either CT Grips, or even a different boot grip a try. Disclaimer though, I'm not recoil sensitive. I've only shot one or two guns that I felt were painful. One was a CZ82 with a worn out barrel spring, the other was a Ruger 454 Alaskan that I shot on a 20°F day. YMMV but I felt the factory Hogue grips seemed to transmit more sensation of recoil (not at all painful, just more "feel") than the bootgrip shaped CT grips.
I have not shot the 357 LCR though. I have shot the Smith n Wesson scandium framed .357 340PD with full power loads and while it's stout, I didn't feel it painful. That gun also had CT grips.
Who wants to learn to shoot IDPA with me? I've never shot it but I need to shoot SOMETHING.
Did you get an infraction for saying that?
Oh, so you remember it from before they remodeled.Corner of 41 and 231 in St. John. Dick?s Restaurant ? Family Dining and Sports Bar | Saint John, IN It used to be a really nice restaurant about fifty years ago, and those same customers are still going there.
I've got the Hogue bantam/boot grips. Hogue-LCR-Bantam_Boot-Grip-Sturm, Ruger & Co., Inc. It wasn't painful to shoot (although it probably would have been eventually). I just wasn't as accurate as I would have liked. Since I was consistently high and to the right, I know I could adjust with practice. I really want to adjust to these grips because the original grips are too bulky and sticky. It will be a lot easier to carry this way.
I'll let you shoot my steel some moresure klb for a delivery fee i'll drop them off.
