It's already been suggested, but I'll drag it into the open anyway.
You will most likely use any double-action in single-action mode when you're hunting, simply because the heavy double-action trigger pull doesn't exactly promote accuracy the way a single-action does.
A handgun in a hunting role is used differently than is a handgun in the defensive role. Hunting shots typically take place at significantly longer distances than defensive shooting does. As well, watch the guys shooting the DA autos next time at the range. If there's a "flyer", it'll most often be the first, double-action round that goes off-target.
Even if you purchase the DA revolver, I would encourage you to use it in single-action mode for hunting. I've used a double-action Ruger Redhawk hunting for years, never has it crossed my mind not to bring the hammer back with my thumb before I fire it.
Single-action, when used for hunting, is NOT a liability.
