I am looking at jumping into the SA revolver market, and have found what I like in the Ruger BlackHawk line.
Most specifically two of the stainless BH's in .357Mag. My dilema is which barrel lenght to get. I like the compact size of the 4 5/8" barrel, but am concerned about the recoil, and accuracy. The other option is the 6 1/2" barrel, but that just gives the impression of too much gun. Both feel alright in my hand, though.
Most of my shooting will be at targets(I don't want to say 'cowboy' because that would offend those of you who are legitimate SASS type shooters) and for fun. I suppose someday I might take a try at quick draw(against a target! <BG> ) or legitimate cowboy action shooting, but that will probably take some time.
Thanks for any input.
