I know this is a brand new gun, so I am wondering if anyone has had the chance to blast something yet? I use a .44 primarily as a backup for elk hunting. I have run ins with Blackies and Large Moose on a regular basis while Bowhunting here in Utah. Real scary experience with a blackie last year. I left the .44 in the truck. I will never do that again!
However, I will be in the Houston and Austin areas this summer and fall and thought I might give this piggie idea a whirl. I know a longer barrel would give me better chances, but I sold the 7.5 SRH. So.......
1) Anyone else downed piggies with a four inch .44? (Smith, DW and Taurus welcomed responses here)
2) Open sights or did you have your handgun scoped?
3) If scoped, with what? (Mounted with rigs, Bsquare etc)
4) Where did you do your hunting and would you recommend me going there (Bow or handgun, but primarily the handgun with Shooting sticks this time around).
Thanks in advance and God Bless,
Porter
