About the Cartridge

This cartridge was developed by Smith & Wesson and Remington, and was introduced for a new heavy-frame 44 Magnum revolver. Today Ruger, Colt, Smith & Wesson and others make revolvers for this cartridge. This is a high powered pistol cartridge designed primarily for hunting. The .44 Magnum offers less power than .50 AE and .454 Casull, but much more than .357 Magnum.

Ruger Super Blackhawk 45 Hunter stainless 7.5” bar
By MikeB-21 on 29 May 2020
Just purchased late March 2020. When I saw it online from Lipsey went crazy next @ dealers trying to find it asap. Dealer said Lipsey’s had four left in stock and I paid the hefty $875.00 plus state tax & NICS. I don’t care, I had to have it and I love it. I use factory ammo for now as I do handload safely and this exquisite piece of machinery shoots 45 AQA or Hornady Cowboy all the up to Buffalo Bore Deer Grenades that are on par or exceed 44 magnum statistics SAFELY, per the most current Hornady & Hodgdon Reloading Manuals. The Ruger large frame revolvers & Thompson-Center handguns are the ONLY guns Safely Allowed for the Buffalo Bore. Bomb-proof firearm. BTW ran this gun’s serial number and Ruger website already has the gun already out of production.
