    Post Your deer hunting handgun(s)

    My 3 favorites are the S&W XVR in 460 mag., S&W 629 Classic, and the BFR in 454 Casull. What are yours?

    Lightbulb Hawgs legs for deer

    Damn I wish we could use them up here. I have a Virginian Draggoon nock off of a Ruger with an 8 3/8" pipe I would love to poke a bambi with.

    Default Encore

    I use a Encore with a 12" 44 mag caliber. Extrmely accurate. I had the action done by Virgin Valley barrel co. It has a 1 1/2 #pull. For varmints I have a SS 6mm TCU caliber barrel for this action also. I also carry a Dan Wesson SS 44mag. 4" with a muzzle break and have taken a deer with this about 60yrd shot. If I plan on hunting open fields I use my 7MM WSM rifle.

    Default

    I carry a stainless Ruger Redhawk in 44 Mag 7 1/2 inch barrel. For blackpowder I use a stainless Old Army also with a 7 1/2 barrel. I always carry a sidearm as I was once rushed by a pack of rogue dogs. I think my favorite, though, is a stainless Ruger P-Series in a DC 45 ACP. Got an 8 point buck with it a couple of years ago.
