You really can't go wrong either way.
The S&W will feel more refined out of the box. After a little careful stoning the trigger will border on orgasmic.
The Ruger will be heavier and a bit more solid as the years go by. The trigger can be worked to feel better than an out of the box S&W.
What you need to do is hit a gun show and fondle each gun. Your money will be best spent on the gun that fits your hand and sight picture best. Internet gun rangers can't tell you what you like. Only a little hands on time will do that.
Yes, the Redhawk will accept wood or rubber grips. There are countless grips for the S&W too.
I love my model 25 but still lust for a Redhawk in 45.
