Handgun hunting?
26/11/17 02:59 AM

So I am thinking about branching out in my hunting a little. I got back from RSA a few weeks ago and took 13 bushbuck Rams in 8 days of hunting. That makes 50 rams out of my “100 Ram Project”. I love hunting these animals, as much as buffalo actually but i’m finding no real interest in most other non DG game.

I mostly use a SxS Chapuis in 9.3x74r and a 300 mag.

I’m thinking hard about adding a hunting revolver to my tool box. I have a Freedom Arms 97 in 45LC with a 5.5 octagonal barrel and adjustable sights but kind of want to step up to a heavy hitter. I want a single action and i’m thinking of another Freedom Arms. Maybe one like this;

I have very little experience hunting with handguns, I think I need to add a red dot to be legal in RSA but I could use some advice on how I should start down this road. Limitations, pros and cons, any adectdotale wisdom to pass on?

Thanks,
