About 3 weeks ago I posted a question about what type 44 I should buy, and I got some good advice. I went in to town and bought a 4" SS rubber grip S&W. I want to tell those who answered my questions and recommended the S&W Thanks, It shoots just fine and handles a mag load real nice without much kick, what I really like about it is it's balance it does not jump around in your hand when firing a mag load it comes stright up like a good weapon should.
Thanks again
Harry

    I have a Ruger SST Blackhawk,44 mag 10 1/2 inch barrel with standard grips. I use this revolver for hunting only,problem is when I shoot it more than 2-3 times,it cracks my middle finger when the trigger guard hits it. What can I do ? ...no I'm not gonna sell it..LOL Any remedy?I thought about tape or some kind of softing system...what say?

    Can you shoot the same rounds though a rifle that you can a pistol?

    Does anyone have experience with a red dot scope/sight on a 44 mag?
    I have a S/W 629 44 mag that I am considering taking hog hunting and I am also considering a red dot type scope. Not really needing magnification bc shots will be under 50 yrds.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Color Cased and in good shape, you are talking about 300.00-350.00. They were SAA style, but had a frame that was larger than the SAA. The new ones are scaled down, and will not handle a 44 Magnum.
