That seems to be a pretty big jump. I got my wife's Colts some years ago before cowboy action shooting really took off. Third generation 7 1/2" Colts in .357 blue/CH. As the years have gone by I have just watched the price of these things climb and climb. That's why she shoots Colts and I shoot Vaquero Bisleys. Ruger has long been the affordable six shooter. I can go to a match and easily see 60-65% of the revolvers are Rugers. Unfortunately this price increase will make getting into cowboy action shooting just a little tougher for the new shooters.
