I have a Redhawk 5" .44. I put a Ruger Gold Dot on front and a V rear sight. It's wickedly accurate and much easier to handle and carry than my SuperRedhawk .454 (same size as a .44).
The Redhawk is much lighter. I use these 2 for different reasons: Redhawk-belt carry, easily hidden, meant for 50-75 yd. use. SuperRedhawk- scoped with Bushnell 2-6X, a little awkward in a holster, definitely not compact, useful out to 150 yds.
You'll have to choose based on your needs. Both are quality guns.
