I see Bob's point as being to what end?
Did you ever tell us exactly what makes the ruger design so good as a hunting round? Short, fat powder column with an efficient burn rate fine. How much more efficient than the H&H? How much more efficient is this in the field and how shall we measure this and, equally important, could hunters tell the difference? I suspect not.
So, we again round back to the point which is to what end all this?
