I'm thinking about a .44 for a backup sidearm for pig hunting. I would prefer a DA, for faster, last-ditch ability. I would probably be using 300 grain hard cast bullets.
I've been thinking about the Redhawk in a 5-1/2" barrel, but I thought I had read that the Super Redhawk is actually a tad lighter than the Redhawk? It sure looks bulkier on the Ruger website. Can anyone with both confirm this?
Anyway, is there any reason to go with the Super Redawk? (Also, I don't think they are available in anything shorter than a 7-1/2" barrel, though.)
(I don't guess a Glock 20 10mm would be sufficient for a mad pig, would it?)
Thanks,
Steve
