I've always been more interested in rifles, but I've finally settled on buying a .44 revolver. At first I thought about the classic S&W 29, but the Ruger s. b. hunter caught my eye. It is somewhat more affordable than the S&W, and I like the less flashy looks (and the scope mount if ever I want to take it hog hunting- but I've got other guns for that if i buy a revolver without scope mounts). But alas, I don't really know much of anything about revolvers. I've only shot a few of them, including the model 29. I know there are tons of revolver models I haven't so much as glanced at.
Is there something I should know, or is the Ruger SBH fundamentally as good a choice as any for a .44?
Also, it will be used mostly for casual plinking/paper practice at 25-50 yards (and possibly eventually some hog hunting if it has the capability).
Thanks in advance for the help!
