Redhawks are great, though I prefer Super Blackhawks. T/Cs are not handguns in my book. You can't go wrong with a Ruger.

I have three Rugers, would not part with any of them. Don't have a Redhawk, but would like too.

I have a SBHH and my father-n-law has a redhawk. Both are great guns, I prefer mine, he prefers his.

I never cared for the factory grip on the Redhawk with heavy loads, which is why I've gone the way of the Super. The SRH 480R with the Hogue Tamers is a joy to shoot.

I really wish Hogue would make a Tamer-type grip for the Redhawk -- that is all my Redhawk is lacking. I'm going to have to spring for a set of Nil Griffe grips for mine as it is downright uncomfortable to shoot with anything over a heavy .45 Colt load.
