The reason the Colt SAA in .45LC “Won the West” is that nobody had Ruger Redhawk .44 Magnums with 7.5” barrels and Flat-nosed 300gr. Beartooth bullets (manufactured 3 miles away from me in Dover ID by the way) loaded up around 1100FPS.

If Redhawk’s had been available with this load, THEY would be the gun that Won the West.

OK, flame away...
