Hi,
I am interested in hunting with a revolver. I have been using a contender but want to try something new. I have a Ruger Super Blackhawk in 44 mag with 7 1/2" barrel. I'm wondering what the effective range really is? I will be hunting Whitetails at up to 100 yards. I was thinking of using Hornady 300 gr. XTP's. Is that really nessary? I am also thinging about getting the simmons 2-6 scope. It's not that expensive. Will it hold up to the recoil? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Rob...
