Default RE: Ruger Super Red Hawk .44 mag

I agree with anyone who says you should get as close as you can for a good clean kill. I was referring to the capability of the cartridge. I hunt 99 percent of the time from ambush points so a good rest is no problem. By the time the critter steps into the open, I am ready. Once again, it takes practice and a dead solid rest when you get to 100 yard shooting. The sights on most pistols are not fit for long range shooting and I use a 2X Nikon scope on the 44 SBH and the single shot pistols.

I also put the V Notch rear and front bead sights from the SRH on my SBH. These sights are capable of good shooting at longer range. You can get these sights from Ruger.
