You could say I like Dan Wessons! I also now have a 6" Barrel for the 44 mag that I got from CZ. I also had my brother make me a muzzle brake barrel nut from a rifle brake. Works very well. I have a couple of pictures if you want to see them...
I guess there could be. My Dan Wesson 44 mag has a cylinder longer then all other cylinders except the Ruger. Garrett ammo has rounds that they will only recommend for the Dan Wesson and Ruger guns for fear of damage to other ones. So I guess if the 44 Mag can be built differently so can the...
My brother loves his Raging bull in 454. It is the 8" blued model. His will shoot 454 into one nice tight group out to around 75 yards with just a red dot. Weird thing is that with 45 Long Colt, its groups open up alot. Haven't figured that one out yet.
He got his hog last month with his. One...
I must be different from most, I really enjoy shooting my Dan Wesson 44 MAG. Granted it is a large frame, 8" barrel and hogue mono grip so that weight does help tame recoil. I also recently added a muzzle brake (custom Vias). I can (and have) shot over 100 rounds in a single afternoon range...
My brother just got one in blue. He brought it over this weekend and I got to touch a couple off. It was awesome. (I have a 44 mag) His cylinder gap was VERY small. Almost as tight as mine (around .0025). His didn't group 45 colt very well but when we put some 454 XTP loads in it it was shooting...
I own two DWs. One pistol pak in 357 and one in 44mag. Both have the 4", 6", and 8" barrels. I love them. They shoot everything I throw at them (provided I do my part aiming and setting the cylinder gap). I have recently added a muzzle brake to my 8" so that I could run hotter loads through it...
Nope He was right.
From Rugers site.
The Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan is now available in the powerful .44 Magnum cartridge. Introduced in 2005 in calibers .454 Casull/.45 Colt and .480 Ruger, the Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan is the sidearm of choice for those whose work or leisure takes...
I know I already posted my DW 44. But here it is with it's new muzzle brake (custom Vias brake) and Bushnell HoloSight. I can't wait to go hog hunting this fall! :) :)

Thanks for the kind words.
I agree that it is not needed. Of course what in our sport really is? :0
The brake was more of an after thought. The 44 is heavy enough to absorb the recoil pretty well without it. It does help though especially when shooting the heavier premium loads. I too...
Hello,
For those of you who don't read the Greybeard Outdoors forums, I thought I would show you what my Brother (a gunsmith) and myself created for my 44 mag. What I was looking for was a big bore handgun for hunting. We heard that no one made a muzzle brake for a Dan Wesson. My brother...
I will soon post pictures of my "Hog Killer" version. I had my brother (a gun smith) make me a muzzle brake and I mounted a Bushnell Holosight II on it. It looks awesome!
Edited:
Here is what my new "Hog Killer" looks like with the muzzle brake. :)

Dan wessons are know for reliability and for Accuracy. I think you have two options if you want a DW. Find a good blued one (plenty around) and even if you don't have the 6 inch barrel, you can get one made for you. This is the route I did.
CZ is making .445 but do you realize that you can...
Try giving them a call. I sent them an email asking about a part and it took a week to get a reply. When I called them directly, I got right through and they fixed me up.

Well I now have two. One is a blued 357 pistol pack that I got from my dad. It has the 4,6,8 barrels. The other is one I picked up on Jan1. It is a blued 44 mag with the 4 and 8 barrels. Soon I will add a 6 to it too!

My Brother is making me a custom muzzle brake for my 44. It will...
Don't rule out a good Dan Wesson in 44 Mag. I bought one with the 8" Barrel for hunting and it shoots wonderfully. Came with a 4" barrel too. It is Blued and (with reasonable care) holds up well. I got it for $400 out the door. From what I have read (I know can't believe everything) these were...
