I went from the .44 mag to a 10mm Glock 20SF for a number of reasons. First, the noise and recoil, and only 5 or 6 rounds, not to mention the time to re sight after a shot. My first S&W 29 was a 4" that was MagnaPorted. Shot great, and at the range with ear muffs, very reasonable, but in the woods, without ear muffs, I was deaf after one shot. I got to where if I shot it without muffs or ear plugs, I put my left hand trigger finger in my right ear. Don't get me wrong, I still love and have some wheel guns, including my 627 Performance.357, and a couple of Model 10's, a 22lr and a 22Mag. But my go to woods pistol is my Glock Model 20SF 10mm, 15+1 ,and a Diamond D Guide Chest holster with extra mag. Way less recoil, way less recovery, way less muzzle blast, and way more fire power. To each their own, but for big fire power and overall pleasant shooting, my choice is the Glock 10mm.
