I'd post a picture of my holster drawer, but I don't have a wide enough lens.

I have a bunch of abandoned holsters in the drawer too. What's worse is that I have a new gun and belt holsters wont let me draw the last 1/2" comfortably so it look as if I'm looking at $180 for what seems to be the best one I can find.

I have a 5.5" Ruger BH and this Doc Holliday holster looks mighty comfortable. I like the way it rides above the belt line. I have a similar holster for my SBH but it's more of a cross chest carry and worked out very well when I wore it both camping and hunting.

Only when you sit on the kydex ones. Leather doesn't hurt too bad. Just think of it like a woman would, so many shoes, so many purses and most don't fit or go with any outfits they have.
