Magnum Revolvers With Red Dots

[44MOshooter]

I've been mulling around with mounting a red dot sight on one of my revolvers for whitetail hunting. I'm thinking about mounting a red dot on one of my 629's 44mag or my S&W 460 magnum. I've always hunted with iron sights and traditional handgun scopes while whitetail hunting.

My question for any and all's input on this subject.
My biggest concern, how well will a red dot scope hold up to the recoil of the 44 magnum and 460 magnum? Also how well will a red dot hold POA and POI with the stout recoil of a magnum pistol cartridge?
I also understand not all red dot sights are created equal, let me know what your experiences have been?

Thanks

I have red dots on all my magnum revolvers with no problems and even one on a S&W 500 lever gun and a 454 Casull BFR. In fact all my revolvers except for a 351 PD have red dots.

My 44 mag Ruger Bisley Hunter has a 30mm UltraDot mounted with the Ruger factory rings. Very easy to use and I've had no issues with it at all. Something like 11 different brightness settings which helps in various light conditions. Battery lasts a long time. The UltraDot has a reputation for durability.

The various red dots couple with a powerful revolver very nicely.
