Default RE: Ruger Super Redhawk

i have a super redhawk in 44 mag. its the 7 1/2" barell. i have killed 2 hogs with it . the firs one was hunted with dogs and i had federal hydra shock hollow points. it was really mad and eventualy charged me. three shots took him down. the second one was stalked and never knew i was there. i was using reloads this time with 300 grn. hornady xtp's. this little piggy never took a step. i highly recomend the super red, and never plan to sell mine. will probably hand it down to my son. they are bankvault strong and the big frame and bull barrel balance it nicely and really help soak up recoil even from stout reloads. i hope to take a deer with it some day.i would also stay with the 44 mag. the cannon cartriges available now in the rugers are difficult to be accurate with and are a good way to get a flinch. a good bullet in the right place kills not balistic charts! i will dig up some pictures and post them soon as i can one was a real monster!!!
