Another New Hunter Model

[willk]

Having shot Hunter models in all calibers and liking them all, why has the .357 been omitted? A .357 on a medium frame would be special.

Also, a five shot .45 Colt on a large frame might allow the Blackhawk to approach Freedom Arms and Magnum Research performance without undue expense

Or maybe just leave it all alone

Your choice

I'd vote for the 357 on a medium frame. The 5 shot 45 would be cool, but the 6 shot 45 does all I would want to do. I suppose a 5 shot in 460 would be worth considering.

I would love to see a 5 shot 45, with as long of a cylinder as possible. much cheaper than having to convert one

That's a whole different realm. They could do a 454, but the 45 does plenty good for me.

357 on medium frame would be nice. A large frame would be too heavy, just like the 357 Redhawk.

I'm all in for a Large Framed 357 Hunter.

I would like to see a run of 357's with a 10" barrel.

I would love to own a .357 Large framed hunter. I think it would make a great long range shooter.

My OTHER vote is for a 5 Shot .480

Back when all the special run Hunters and Bisleys were coming out, I tried to get interested up for a Hunter in .32 H&R Magnum. Knew it was a real long shot but did get 100 +/- "I'd buy one" responses in a poll. Pitched the idea around but again, knew it was a really big long shot. It's still the chambering I'd want first since a .357 maximum is an even bigger long shot.

There's a Single Six .32 H&R magnum Hunter model already. I can't see why they'd need a larger frame than that.

:shock: Did I miss something??? An available 32 Hunter?

I don't recall where I mentioned anything about a larger frame. :?

 

[CraigC]

Make it a .327 and count me in!

 

[98Redline]

Chalk up another for a 5 shot in 480.

I think we'd all like to hear about that. It must be a top secret project gun with a limited run.

The 5 shot .45 Colt is catchin up. Dead even, which one will win??

I agree with a bunch of you, a 5 shot 480 would be great (and first on my list to purchase) but I have heard so much negative from Ruger about this that I never dreamed it, so I did not include it.

Well, I went and searched it, and couldn't find it. Call me hallucinating, but I could swear I saw one, and almost bought it... feel stupid now either way.

No biggie; those things happen. I'm just glad it's you and not me this time! :mrgreen:

I'd plunk down the money for a 357 medium frame hunter. For me a stainless with the 7 1/2 inch barrel would be super. Bisley or plow handle, Either would be fine, although the Bisley would be a champ.
