Looking for suggestions on what to top this revolver with for hunting. Not seeing a lot of great options out there at this point, but I might be missing something.
As you can see it has a rail, so mount recommendations are appreciated as well.
Purpose: Deer Hunting
Budget: Would like to keep it to less than a grand, but open to spending more on good glass
Ideas that I may have missed?

I have a Aimpoint T1 on my S&W 44 Magnum 629 7.5” Performance Center.
However, I have several revolvers with a Primary Arms SLX Advanced Rotary Knob Compact Red Dot Sight That has been as good for less money, including on my S&W 500 Magnum 5”.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...037161d5de.jpg

I would consider either a fixed 2x or 4x for your purposes.
For hunting with a revolver, I like a scope over a red dot. Right now I’m using a Leupold M8 IER 2x on my .454. The magnification isn’t much better than a red dot, but I feel that the aiming is more precise. I’ve also used a Bushnell 3200 2-6x and found myself using it mostly in the 3-4x range. Even off of a solid rest, I had a hard time finding a steady sight picture at mad power
I just want to note that your pimp hand is strong.Quote:

Used only for the heaviest/largest of game, I have an SSK ported 7.5" Redhawk that is zeroed with a 300 grain XTP pushed by H110. It is an extremely accurate combo as evidenced by these approximately 110 yard groups. It is topped with a Ultradot Matchdot, which many in the handgun hunting community consider the premier brand.
