Hello, the name is Scott Gray. I can't remember the last time I hunted with a rifle, nothing wrong with 'em its just that I hunt with longbows and recurves but.....there is always a but, I recently purchased a Ruger NM Super Blackhawk. It is a .44 mag and sports a 4 and 5/8 inch barrel. I plan on it being on my side everytime I step into the woods and I will hunt with it next year. I have already gleaned a wealth of knowledge just by reading the older posts on HH. I look foward to sharing my success and failures with ya'll.
