SRH 454/45LC-vs-SBH 44Mag.
Thanks 98redline, etc. for your detailed info.
Looks like SBH 44 is better for deer, and first pistol.
Are they more trouble free?
With loads big enough to easily kill 300 lb black bear and 200 lb. whitetails in their tracks, has anyone had problems with cases sticking in the chamber in the Blackhawk?
What hunting rounds would you recommend for SBH for deer/black bear? I want soemthing they won't get up from, but not too crazy over the top.
I will eventually try reloading, but currently do not.
The SRH 454 seems more like a gun to have for the sheer joy of blasting and bigger game hunts.
Would the 454 be any advantage with deer or 300 lb black bear?
Are there folks out there with lots of 454 shot out of SRH who have never had cases stick? How?
Can I adequitely hunt deer and ward off black bear with 45LC in the 454 SRH without using 454Casul, and just save that for the sheer thrill, and bigger game?
Also: Is there a version of DA 44Mag, or 45LC suitable for concealed carry? If so what? OR what would YOU recommend for CC? 38? 357? I want em' to go down fast and stay down! How bout that rugger( LCR or LRC) or Taurus ultralight? Is ultralight the way to go for cc? I am willing to cc something a bit bigger, but not the 7.5" SRH ! ;-)
