That's a decent price if the piece is in reasonably good condition. I have an identical Ruger that I use to test handloads for velocity and accuracy mostly because it absorbs recoil well. A SA does have a more pronounced recoil than a DA but I find it easier on my hand than a DA. I can't see a whole lot of difference in recoil between my Super Blackhawk and my Redhawk(not Super) but the added topend weight of the SBH's mounted scope tames it considereably. Since a hunting gun is not especially a high volume shooter, there's no big downside to the SA type.
