The same as mine. Its great out to 50 yds with iron sights.

man i have been thinking about one of these, it has the 10" barrel, and i would have to put the iron sight back on the rear, but the price is hard to beat @599. if you dont mind my asking crock how much did that cost you?

I traded a s&w .40 m&p sub compact

Great lookin' gun, Carlos! With those grips, how does it feel when it goes bang? Always thought it would be neat to kill a deer with a revolver. Carried my ol' .357 several times, along with my rifle, but when the deer showed up, for some reason I always used the rifle. I guess I knew what would happen with the rifle and questioned my ability with the revolver.

I havent shot it due to a bad elbow thats healing slowely.

FYI, that's a super Blackhawk, it has the squared trigger guard that is famous for biting you. Those rubber grips should eliminate that, & tame felt recoil. The large hammer spur can be sharp also. A tank of a gun & very accurate, you very well may not need to carry anything else. Just be aware animals may be able to hear it being cocked. If you get used to cocking the hammer with your left thumb, your grip/sight picture won't constantly be changing. With practice it will be faster & more accurate. Load up a bunch of 44 specials for practice. Enjoy.

those blackhawks are nice. had one in 44mag with 10" barrel. Also had a super redhawk in 480 with a 7.5" barrel. Now for bear and hog I got a S&W 500 mag with 8 3/8" barrel
