For a utilitarian hunter, the SRH hands down.

The better choice in grips, better design action, easier tuning, and overall build quality make it a great choice.

For scoping, the scallops being a bit farther back helps with the balance of the gun rather than the RH and similarly SBH hunter which put the optic out over the barrel.

Not that there is anything wrong with a RH (I own one of those too) but looks aside, the SRH is a better revolver, not by much, but better none the less.
