I use my 4" 629 for deer hunting and 2.5" Bulldog for bumming around in the woods. They're both showing some wear, but that's why I bought them!

The king of outdoors guns. There are some more powerful options but you got to carry them, size & weight matter. 6 shots of 360 wlnfpgc over a full case of h110 makes a statement on both ends. I've had my share of handguns but this guy gets the nod for outdoors work. Do I need that much power (in the Midwest)?-- no. But it's nice to have all the handgun I will ever need. If more range or velocity is required a rifle is in order.

Hunting is meaningless without being able to hit and kill game. My Dan Wesson M45 spent years as my big bore silhouette revolver where it was deadly out to 220 yards with its 300 LFN at 1080 fps. Now it is my primary hunting revolver for deer-sized game, launching the Hornady 250 XTP at 1200 fps. The scope allows my aging eyes a perfect sight picture and it has killed Kodiak blacktails out to 100 yards, although most were under 50 yards.

No scarey toothed critters around here.
It's no wonder these old 1873 models have been so popular for 140 years.

Their streamlined shape and relatively compact size slips in and out of a holster with ease.

My deer hunting revolver hasnt seen much use since my state no longer has a handgun only season.

Farming through intimidation . Leave those zuchs there so the other vegitables know what'll happen to them if they grow out of line. Good plan, sweet revolver.

Please share the details of what kind of voodoo you got going on with the middle revolver. It's a beauty.

That's the best use I've ever seen for a zucchini. Put some eggplants out on the range too.

My general "Woods Carry/Hunting Sidearm" for eastern NC is my 4.75 Cimarron in .357mag. During warmer weather the first round is generally snake shot(lots of Copperheads in the area)
Sometimes I carry my 4" 625, and if actually handgun hunting I carry a 8 3/8" 29-3

I haven't killed any game yet, but I always have one of these with me in the woods.

This is the one I take the most because it is relatively easy to carry. Ruger Blackhawk in .45 Colt.
