Next Revolver Help?

In 4 and 6 inch barrels, 9mm isn't even in the same ballpark. I agree in a snubbie, the difference isn't enough to justify the extra blast but OP wanted a bigger revolver. In a 6 inch barrel you are pushing 158 grains of lead from between 1250 to 1400fps. Try that with a 9mm.....
 
What's the intended purpose for this larger revolver? Just range use and occasional open carry? If yes to either, go with the Blackhawk. A 6.5 inch would be a powerhouse with Buffalo Bore .357, yet easy on the wallet with the 9mm cylinder. I think a .45 Colt/ACP Blackhawk convertible would do you better as the .45 Colt can be loaded really powerful, much more than .357, but the .45 ACP will shoot just as well, if not better than the .45 Colt will.

A SA revolver doesn't mean you're unarmed, especially a Ruger. Ruger makes really good single actions for the money.
