In the Redhawk you'd be able to seat the 180 XTP long, in the second cannelure, and make room for a little more powder. It would make a dandy woods gun capable to 100 yards, IMO. I believe they only made about 5k of those guns or I might consider reaming it to 360DW.

Exactly the information I was needing. Was wondering if the lower ring would allow proper length or be too long.


The SRH cylinder is about the same length as the SBH and BH. The 180 seated long will fit.

I agree with Doc, I'm not shy about using the 158 XTP in my 6" GeeP on deer. That cylinder is too short to seat the 180 in the second cannelure, or I would give it a go.


Rod, too.

Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.
