Default RE: Pistol for hunting

I have a super redhawk and love it (.44mag). I love the Ruger revolvers and the Redhawk is a double action verses
the Blackhawk being a single action revolver ( I like the dbl action option). However, the S&W revolvers are very sweet!

When I bought the pistol, I had put a Laser RedDot scope on it and hunted with it on my side for awhile.
It's a simulated laser dot in the scope only, it does not cast the laser beam out.
A few years back I decided I didn't like it and took it off, as it just added weight and I had to remember to turn on the laser.
I'll sell it cheap if you want to try?
$50 and needs a battery, also will kick in the 30mm mount rings. I think I paid like $225 when new 10 years ago.
I've considered putting on a fixed power Leupold scope, but don't want to spend the extra money, as I figure I'm not accurate enough past 60 yards with or without a scope.

I bagged this 8 pointer @ 15 yards and iron sights. He went 2 feet... Straight down.
