I am thinking of getting into Cowboy Action Shooting. However, I do not presently own a SA revolver. I have the funds to purchase a revolver, but I have read so many good vs bad threads that I'm now dizzy. So, please answer the following questions so I can go buy a gun. I have an option toi buy a Vaquero (not new model) in SS, with holster for $400, if he still has it when I get back from this trip out of town. I also can buy a new gun. I could get an Uberti, Beretta, Taurus, Ruger, or Cimarron. So...
1) Which SA clone is the best for CAS? I cannot afford a Freedom Arms or Colt, so maybe one of the ones I mentioned?
2) I like authenticity, so I am shying away from the Ruger Vaquero, but I have also heard good things about these.
3) What length of barrel is best for CAS and is it useable as a "woods" weapon as well?
4) What caliber is best? I like authenticity, but I also need to be able to afford bullets. I like .45, but am open to suggestions.
I have money in hand and just waiting to get replies before heading to the gun shop. Yes, I have done searches on both the web and this site, and that's why I am so confused. Can anybody spend my money for me...
