[QUOTE="JOHNNIE WALKER, post: 1135216, member: 67011"] I have a super Blackhawk with 7.5 barrel. I shot a 180 plus pound hog in the face with it at almost point blank range. It died. Very quickly. I handload and really like the 240gr nosler hollow point. It groups well and gives me excellent performance on game. I've killed a few deer with it. I shoot 23.6 gr of win296. I don't recommend the hornady 240 hollow points. I would have no problem shooting hogs with this pistol. The key is to use good bullets. I'm really wanting to try some Barnes, but haven't yet. The 44 mag is a very versitle round. Even though factory ammo is plentiful, reloading really opens up the possibilities. Rugers are built well and typically have plenty of room in the cylinders. You might be surprised what you can come up with. Also, adding fiber optic sights really helps. [/QUOTE]
