But I got some of der Sturm close at hand too, including this chunky little shortened up Bear Buster..
I have a blued 7.5” bbl Redhawk .44mag with grooves for Ruger rings. I used it for deer hunting a few years and took two does with it. Never did use the scope rings. I found I could hand load (safely) my old style Vaqueros (.45colt) as hot or hotter than .44mag, plus the single action vaquero with 5.5” bbl was about a pound lighter than the redhawk. I have 2 vaqueros. One with a standard grip one with a bisley grip. I carry the one with the bisley grip. It handles it better.
