But, no Ruger Bisley? Fortunately there is a fix for that.
A couple of those .45s are ex-Bisleys. One started out life as a Blackhawk, became a Bisley, then back to Blackhawk.

Many years ago I set up a .45 in 4 5/8" and 7 1/2" barrel lengths with Blackhawk, Super Blackhawk, and Bisley grip frames. Tested them each with mild to fire-breathin' handloads to see which suited me best. After all the smoke cleared I found I didn't like the Bisley so much, especially with heavily loaded heavy bullet loads, 350 gr. bullets at about 1100 fps or so.

Here is the 4 5/8" Bisley in Bisley attire:



I know, I know, the Bisley grip is supposed to be the best for stout loads, but didn't pan out for me.
