Was looking to bu another revolver... not because I need one just want one... Have been eyeing the Ruger Super Redhawk 9.5 in. Planned on putting a Leupold 2x handgun scope in it.
I already have a 7.5 in Redhawk with an Ultra dot which I love. A 4 .2 in Redhawk that I carry on the hip when afield.
Does anyone have one? Any complaints?

I'm not a double action kinda guy, but if I were to get one, it'd be a the SRH for sure. I'd pick 45 Colt, but I don't even know if it is available in that caliber.
Never had heard anything bad about that revolver.

I have one...I love it...I taken several deer with it and so has my wife...no complaints. No animal will ever no the difference being hit with a 44 as opposed to a 45 Colt. Get the gun, hunt with it, take some game, and enjoy it! Remember, a gun that is not hunted with and no game is ever taken with it, is just a table top decoration 😉

I have not. My wife and I have used 240 gr. PMC Starfire and Speer 240 gr. Gold Dot factory ammo on our 44'ed deer. I am working on a load now for the 300 gr. XTP seated on the bottom cannelure with 23 gr.'s of H110. I'll let you know the fps when I'm done.

I have a Missouri 240 gr Keith style coated bullet that runs 1260fps out of my 7.5 inch... It shoots 2" groups all day at 50 yards I cant wait to try it out of the 9.5 in
