A couple of weeks ago I made a post asking for info for a hunting handgun. Yesterday I made a great deal on a used, mint condition Ruger Super Blackhawk Hunter in stainless w/7 1/2' barrel and rings. No scope. Dealer threw in a box of ammo. Real nice gun! Going back to get a shoulder rig for it and order a Weaver 2X handgun scope. Thanks for all the advice. Now to save for reloading equipment so i can take up that hobby again. Can't wait for weather to improve a little so I can make some noise!

Very cool. Red dot or scope?

You won't be sorry for that choice.

You've got that right. I've got one that's been on several different guns, included a Ruger SRH .454. It's always given perfect service and now has pretty much found a permanent home on a 10'' .22 Contender barrel.

Qtip- Looks like we both have the same outfit- Ruger SBH with Weaver 2X28 Scope. Just got my new holster from www.quiethide.com. If, you like Dave Jansen's holsters he should be able to send a picture of the one he just made for me. I've got new springs from Wolff Spring to lighten the hammer and trigger. Also, trying to get a Bisley hammer, but may just go ahead and forget about it if Ruger takes to long on the hammer. I had a SB with a 4 5/8" barrel and the hunter with the 7 1/2" barrel really shoots a lot better for me.

I pick up the scope and get it mounted on Friday along with scoped handgun shoulder holster. When the weather gets better it' time to try it out.

Excellent choice!
