Redhawk 4.2" .44 Magnum timing question | RugerForum.com
Dec 4, 2024 · Just purchased a new Ruger Redhawk .44 magnum. When checking it over this afternoon, I noticed a few concerns regarding timing and cylinder lockup. When cocking the hammer to go into single action mode, when cocked ever slow slowly the cylinder bolt will not lock into the cylinder notch until trigger is pressed.
Scope advise for my .44 Magnum - Ruger Forum
Dec 5, 2011 · The scope rings that came with your Super Redhawk are 1". The Aimpoint red dot scope you linked has a 30mm tube and requires 30mm rings. I think (may be wrong) that Ruger will trade you 30mm rings for the 1" rings that came with your gun, provided they are unused. Paul

Aug 24, 2023 · I’m new to this forum, but I recently recieved a ruger Red Hawk 44 magnum with the snub nose 2.5”barrel. Every time I try to look up anything about it it comes up as a super red hawk, but there are no markings on it that indicate it is a super red hawk. It has 44 magnum written on the barrel...
Should I? Ruger Redhawk 44 magnum 5 inch
Dec 1, 2012 · He took a Ruger Redhawk 44 magnum in on trade. It is a 5-5.5 inch barrel and I really like it. He priced it for 525. To be honest I don't know if thats a fair price but it seemed fair to me. I really like the shorter barrel and I believe this is the first one I've seen.

.44 Magnum Experiences: Redhawk VS. Super Blackhawk - Ruger …
I have a 41 Magnum Bisley 7.5" and a 5.5" 41 Magnum Redhawk and a 5.5" Super Blackhawk Dragoon grip. The 41 Bisley is the easiest to shoot of the 3. The gun rolls up in your hand, comes back on target quickly and is a natural pointer.
Favorite .44 mag load for hunting deer - Ruger Forum
Feb 26, 2017 · Deer at 40 yds with a 44 magnum are pretty easy with correct hits. A lot of different bullets will work, just match the bullet to the velocity. A light weight bullet at very high velocity can be a real problem. In a handgun you aren't going to get rifle velocity & massive expansion/shock so you need bullet placement & penetration.
which optics for redhawk 44 magnum - Ruger Forum
Dec 4, 2009 · In my opinion, a Leupold 2X scope can't be beat for a 44 Mg. Redhawk. I have hunted with the Red dot sights and as a deer hunting proposition, they leave something to be desired. The illuminated dot tends to blot out the deer in low level light conditions, which is just when you need it.
Ruger Redhawk Misfire, light primer strike
Oct 15, 2011 · I have a 5-inch Ruger Redhawk in .44 Magnum that has an intermittent misfire problem, only during double-action fire. It will reliably ignite 5 cartridges in a row, then misfire, with a light primer strike, on number six. This does not seem to be chamber-dependent--each time this happens the round is in a different chamber.
.44 Magnum Experiences: Redhawk VS. Super Blackhawk - Ruger …
Jul 29, 2001 · I think that a shortened Super Redhawk is a better solution. I have had ZERO problems with the GP100 and SP101. Given the fact that the Super Redhawk uses the same action, I would expect Zero problems with it as well. Remember, the Redhawk action was an intermediate step between the Security Six and GP100. and was not repeated.
Cast 44 mag 240 bullets in the Redhawk - and your best load
Nov 5, 2012 · Wanting to shoot some 240gr cast bullets in the Redhawk, really just want ONE load to cover targets/plinking and the occasional wild hog episode. Looking for the most accurate load, not the heaviest load. Likely using the Speer swaged SWC or the Laser-Cast SWC. Just wondering if I should...
