Super Redhawk Alaskan 44 or 454

[Jarrod Renaud]

Anyone in Colorado... (front range/Denver) have an Alaskan in 44 or 454 that might be willing to meet me at a range so I could put some rounds through it? I could travel to meet you(or Ive got a membership at Triggertime in Longmont). Im in the market for a big bore handgun but have only shot the SRH 5.5" in 44.

Would love to see what a 2.5" barrel is like. With that short of a barrel I'd probably lean towards the 454 since the velocity would drop below 1000fps even with hot loads.


Let me know!

I have it in .454, I am headed out of town today for the last weekend of fall turkey but we can coordinate you shooting it for sure. I live in Lakewood.

There's a guy selling a used .44 with custom wood grips for $650 on COAR15 forum.

Thanks for the heads up!

Been trying to track down a SRH 4" or 5.5" in 44. They're few and far inbetween.

Sorry, forgot to mention that it is a Ruger Alaskan.

I am out first season also. Good luck!

 

[Jarrod Renaud]

Awesome brother! Good luck to you as well!

If you can find one, try the .480 in the Alaskan as well. Bigger bullet (410 grains) and without the recoil of .454.

Awesome, yeah I had read some reviews on it. Looks to be an awesome round. Finding one will be tricky

Can't figure out PMs on mobile site...but I've got a 4" (cutdown) SRH in .44mag I'm thinking of selling. More than happy to ship to your ffl if you're interested.
