[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 2678881, member: 10"] That was a typo, its a super redhawk of course. On the comparison of archery and handgun hunting, that was a comment about my personal experience. Used to do a great deal of pronghorn archery hunting. In practicing i could easily make consistent shots on a 9” paper plate at 125 yards with my bowtech bow. Not saying i would take that shot on game but practiced to plus 100 yards regularly. I shot my revolvers dramatically more then my archery gear at that time and there is no way that i could put a cylinder full of rounds on a 9” paper plate at 125 yards offhand. So in that sense, making a hit at that range, for mem was much easier with my bow then with my handguns. now that said, off a bench, the super REDHAWK in the pic will easily put six shots into a 4” group, sometimes much less. I just can not do it off hand. Now i realize with archery hunting there is more to it then just hitting the target so please realize my comments were more toward simply making precise hits compared to offhand handgun shooting for me. This also only is considering traditional revolvers, not specialty handcannons, totally different game there. [/QUOTE]
