I would think a 10 ounce .380 would have vicious recoil especially since the grips would be small.

I have a Browning .380 and large hands. Don’t have any problem getting good groups at 5 yards.

That was my observation...his recoil was a lot more pronounced than my Sig .40 S&W. If you go to Ruger’s web page they have a link to a demo video of the .380 and a demo of it being fired. The recoil was the first thing I noticed.
