Hey everybody, I am planning to buy a stainless .44 mag DA revolver for hunting deer and general plinking but I want it to be a fast handling well balanced piece for some action type shooting I like to do if needed. I'd like the shortest barrel practical, 5 to 6 inches seems ideal to me. My first desires are for a Ruger Redhawk because of Ruger's super customer service and quality product and S&W because of reputation. Either would likely work great but I would like some opinions from those who have experience with the Ruger Redhawk and\or the S&W 629. How do they handle? How's the triggers? Would you recommend one over the other? Anything else I should know or be concerned about? Thanks in advance.
