Tyler,
I, like you would want to shoot the LC Smith. Sounds like a nice gun.

There is no way I'd shoot that load if it were mine.
Recoil on you may not be a problem. Recoil on the stock would be a real concern for me. 1-1/4oz @ 1250 or 1330 and 6.5lbs?

Is it mandatory that you use their shells? Can you contact the guide and suggest a substitute that you are comfortable with and explain the situation? Maybe it is the perfect occasion/excuse for another SXS. smile
