They made a target version, the Model 50, that was used by a lot of folks who wanted a revolver to use in the .45 matches.
The model 50 was actually a target sight J frame chiefs special 38 special. You probably mean the model 25, which was a N frame target revolver available in 45 acp or 45 colt. There were some earlier versions of the model 25 and 26, notably the model 1955 45 acp (heavy barrel, later the model 25), the model 1950 45 acp (light weight barrel, later the model 26 - model 26 marked guns are rare), and of course, you could have ordered a 45 acp target revolver before WWII, but those would be very scarce.
