Ever since Sturm, Ruger & Company released the .480 Ruger in the love-it-or-hate-it Super Redhawk in 2001, revolver aficionados have been brow-beating Ruger to offer a .480 Ruger variant in its popular single-action lineup. Now it's here.
Handgun hunters everywhere have reason to rejoice as two of their favorite calibers can be had in the revolver they love in an affordable package. Finally.
