I traded off both my ruger Blackhawks one in 45 colt and the other in 44 mag because they was too big.. now I want another big revolver. I appreciate the feedback and I've been watching reviews online I think I'll jump on it before it gets sold.A buncha years ago, I traded a T/C Encore 7mm08 pistol that I fired once, for a blue steel Raging Bull in .44 Mag. It had an 8" ported barrel, and I put a BSquare mount and a red dot on it. It shot very well, and sheer size and the ports tamed the recoil nicely. Muzzle blast was very evident, and it flashed pretty bad, but manageable. I killed a doe with it that year, and traded it off for something else by the next season.
It was a big handgun. So big that I figured might as well tote a 16" Marlin .44...
The Taurus was nice. I'd own another one.

Couldn’t imagine getting rid of my Blackhawk 45 Colt.I traded off both my ruger Blackhawks one in 45 colt and the other in 44 mag because they was too big.. now I want another big revolver. I appreciate the feedback and I've been watching reviews online I think I'll jump on it before it gets sold.
It was my least favorite.. I liked the 44 way betterCouldn’t imagine getting rid of my Blackhawk 45 Colt.
Nice gun.I have a Hunter with an 8 inch barrel in 44 mag. Currently has a Vortex red dot on it .
It shoots well and accurate. Know it has a barrel sleeve, similar to Dan Wesson guns, and also two cylinder releases which to me are a good thing but can slow you down if not paying attention. I brought it into the herd because I have a "thing" for slabsided
revolvers and got it at a great price. My main gun for deer hunting is a handgun. Not sure I would let loose the money some folks are asking for them today.
I am a. 41 mag fan too.
I have a Blackhawk, Redhawk and Contender barrel in that caliber and all have taken deer.
