I bought a used gun and the 45 acp cylinder didnt match the gun so i sent it in and they gave me a new cylinder and timed it to the gun all free of charge except the shipping to them, So i would get in contact with Ruger and see if they will sell direct and set the timing for you.

As I recall Ruger matches the cylinders to the gun at the factory (timing and barrel gap both require fitting). It's not a drop in thing if you want it to preform correctly. Don't expect to buy one second hand and have a plug and play cylinder.
Yeah I am quite familiar with Ruger and fitting a cylinder. The unfluted cyl from my 7 1/2" Bisley Blackhawk works awesome in my Bisley Vaquero but the fluted Vaquero cyl needs shimmed to work in the Bisley BH.
Looks cool anyway as an unfluted BV.
A unfluted Super 44 cyl rebored to 45acp might be an option
