The reason I added (Ruger) is because the Redhawk is my only option to shoot hot enough 45LC loads to meet the legal requirements that I’m aware of. At least that can be attained for the $$$ I’m trying to spend.
I was not aware of the cylinder issues, the only things I had read were that the 45 LC/ACP versions of the RedHawk had a very high lemon percentage.
I recently bought an older 357 Redhawk (thanks again Brett!), and while I love the gun it isn’t something I would be thrilled to carry miles away from roads - which is basically exclusively where I hunt.
