454 Casull Muzzlebrake,Port ??????

I have a 454 Casull in the encore pistol 12' barrel; any thoughts or suggestions on how to tame this bad boy down. As I get a little more "mature/old" I just don't want to be the hero any more and take it.
I have purchased a Pachymar decelerator grip for it and hope it helps.
Thanks guys in advance,

Get it Mag-Na-ported. Will help with recoil.
Mag-Na-Port Intl.

Just my 2 cents worth but simple physics would tend to move all the driving force straight back into your hands & wrist with the mag port as opposed to the muzzle flip that you probably have now. Guess it also depends on what your using it for, hunting or target. I don't like getting "barked" when using a tree for a rest also

i have the raging bull in that caliber.
it is ported and while that helps KABOOM here is right.
i DO NOT like shooting it from a rest because it piledrives me straight back.
standing and shooting is great though.
very little muzzle flip!

a muzzle break would work for sure.
but that would make an already VERY loud gun
SUPER DUPER LOUD!
go for it dude!

p.s. get some killer hearing protection.

Mag-Na-Port is angled to pull gun forward and down. Both of my 454s are ported and it helped tremendously on recoil and muzzle flip.
