[QUOTE="testlight, post: 2401694, member: 26301"] Well, legalities aside I would assume that with the quality hunting bullet you can hunt deer-sized game as far out as you can hit say a six or eight inch circle. I used to hunt with a 7 1/2" Ruger Super Blackhawk for years in Alaska. It was the best deer gun I used. The weather was always raining snowy and crappy and long shots really didn't present themselves very often. With a rest I could hit a 6-in circle every time at 100 yards. That was after a lot of practice with a 22 and the 44. I was on a budget so I used Winchester white box 240 grain soft point bullets. They work really well without overexpanding and they're not too expensive. So I guess it just depends some people can shoot revolvers really well some people can't. I love 1911's but I can't shoot them with beans... [/QUOTE]
