Carried the little .44 this weekend.

First time in the woods for the .44 4.2 Redhawk. First off this thing shoots and is easy to shoot. Second, it packs great. I used one of Back Country Leather's (Randy Miller) chest rigs. A match made in heaven. I bought it for bear protection but it is deffinately getting some woods time. Probabaly my favorite gun purchase this year.

Good looking Ruger! What's your hunting load for it?

Nice Redhawk Roy. Can you post a picture of the chest holster? I've got a Darn Tough holster with the Chesty Puller option for my S&W 629 3" and a red dot.

Looking forward to when it draws first blood on game.

Here is Randy wearing one of the chest rigs. I need to get a good pic of mine. It is slightly different from the one he is wearing.

240XTP over 22.0 grs H110 with a 155 primer in Starline brass. This thing is so easy to shoot well I can offhand 1" 25 yard groups with that load.

That’s a SW 629 load the great Super Redhawk at 24.0 of H110 with the 240 XTP is my 240gr load. Still half grain off max 24.5. Love the Redhawk in the Kenai Chest holster here in Alaska.
