Well, I don't currently have any Ruger revolvers. But this 4" RedHawk has my attention. I have a few N-frames and love them, maybe this would be a good one to add.

8 rounds of goodness. The 357mag Redhawk is also offered in a 5.5" but is the same weight as their 44mag version at 49 ounces. I prefer the 4.2" at 44 ounces. Still carryable and will shoot the hottest loads out there.

I have the half lug model with a 5" barrel. The full lug and shorter barrel looks great, IMO. I guess I'll have to add another one to the list. Ed

It looks like they have several new redhawks out, the one that caught my eye is the 5.5" blued model with wood grips. That would be a sweet piece.
