In the next week or two, I am looking to pick up a big caliber revolver. I have been looking around and I have a few in mind. Keep in mind I do not want anything with a barrel longer than 4 inches, DA/SA is a must, prefer stainless, but blue is OK for the right gun. Right now my short list is.
Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan in .454 Casull
S&W 500
Taurus M454 (I am not really keen on this, I have a hard time spending this kind of money on a Taurus).
S&W 460 is a maybe, but it's a 5 inch barrel.
What am I missing? I want to stay larger than a .44 Magnum.
I am leaning towards the Ruger, I kinda have a thing for Rugers, but it's been hard to find, I have no issue buying on line, but I really want to see one in person first. Price is not a huge factor, but I do want to stay as close to $1000-1200 real world price as I can.
For those that might wonder, I have no specific purpose for this other than I just want one. It will be a range toy that gets shot once in while. I have a thing for large caliber revolvers. On second thought I might consider a single action if it were something really cool.
Thanks for any help
