I just got done watching Handgun Hunting Down Under with Lynn Thompson; & I must say it was a pretty good video. The first half of the video he shoots a lot of pigs and the second half of it he shoots mainly buffalo. He was using a Ruger Super Redhawk with Hornady 300 gr. XTP hollow points. In my opinion I thought he was a little undergunned using it on buffalo. Some went down with 1 shot but most of them took multiple shots. Maybe he wasn't undergunned But I only hunted whitetail deer with my 629 classic. All in all it was a good video to watch.

I am still waiting for my DVD "Handgun Hunting Down Under".
Mike, are you sure that the revolver is a Ruger Super Redhawk? For me it's a Ruger Redhawk 7 1/2".

I went on his website, and it says he uses mainly a ruger redhawk 44 mag. In the short clip that i saw, if you pause it, you can see that it is a redhawk. That youtube video is wild! Smackin those buffalo in the head and they just drop.

Ravenman; I thought to it looked like a Redhawk, but in the video I thought one time he said Super Redhawk. I could be mistaken.

Just finished the video and it was action packed! I thought it was purdy good. It definently shows the capability of a 44 mag in a marksman's hands. All in all, great video...and comes with a free cold steel knife & sheath.
