Sweet gun. I have been looking at the Taurus 500. Not sure if i'm going to go thru with it. It def an expensive hobby. I have also been lookin at the Taurus 454. They are badass pistols.
I like my Taurus 6.5" 44 mag. for bears up here in Alaska, but would like to upgrade to the 500 at some point. One shot one kill in the woods here is the trick with a 1000 lbs. 10' tall bear charging you.
got a 454 Alaskan redhawk, Pretty beast snub nose. call it the "motorcity motivator" Let me know how that gun is doing for you, I have shot one and it is quite a blast.... no pun intended.
I have been off and on with wanting to get one for a while. Let me know how you like it. I have a super black hawk hunter .44 and a .44 Dan wesson and have been jonezing for a .454 Alaskan that I do not need.
