John Linbaugh was selling Ruger five shot conversions in .50-70 Government for awhile; still might be. He advised (no matter your experience level with big bore handguns) wearing a bicycle helmet the first time you shoot it.

Recoil on these guns can do some serious damage, starting with the .454 and up. .44 mags, heavy .45 Colts, and stuff like that can be mastered by most and won't physically harm you. The really big stuff is harder to master, and actually can cause lasting damage. Certainly nothing to fool around with.
