A robust single-action platform built to handle heavy loads can be the difference between a confident follow-through and wasted practice time.

RUGER NEW MODEL SUPER BLACKHAWK HUNTER

Design and core features

The RUGER NEW MODEL SUPER BLACKHAWK HUNTER blends classic western-style grips with modern safety and mounting solutions. Its hand-filling grip is widely regarded as one of the most comfortable, natural-pointing options for single-action shooters. Ruger integrates a transfer bar mechanism and a loading gate interlock to minimize the risk of accidental discharge while maintaining straightforward operation in the field.

Action, springs, and safety

Durable coil springs throughout the action enhance long-term reliability under heavy recoil and repeated use. The transfer bar safety combined with the loading gate interlock gives you a level of security uncommon in traditional single-action designs, making it suitable for both range work and serious field applications.

Sights, optics, and mounting

Factory-equipped with a fixed ramp front sight and an adjustable rear sight, the Hunter is set up for accurate iron sight shooting. For extended-range work and precision hunting, integral mounts machined directly on the solid-steel barrel rib provide a stable, repeatable platform for scope rings — and scope rings are included. This eliminates a common source of looseness and inaccuracy you see when adapters or aftermarket bases are used.

Barrel, accuracy, and cartridge compatibility

The cold hammer-forged barrel delivers ultra-precise rifling that improves both accuracy and barrel life. Chambered for the .44 Magnum, the revolver also accepts factory .44 Special cartridges, letting shooters tune recoil and trajectory to the task: full-power .44 Magnum for long-range stopping power or .44 Special for milder recoil and improved follow-up shots.

At a retail price of $1099.99, the Hunter is positioned as a premium single-action revolver with features focused on accuracy, mount stability, and safe handling. View product details and pricing — clicking will take you to our shop page where you can purchase from the retailer.
