I bought a 45 Colt Ruger Bisley with 7 1/2" barrel the first year Ruger made them. Seriously the best handgun I ever bought for $300.
I have killed 9 whitetails, a big pig and a couple coyotes and 6 raccoons with it.
With +p heavy loads it is amazingly powerful yet accurate and tolerable recoil with the heavy bullets. My grandkids have shot a pile of cowboy loads through it. With #4 shot loads it is a copperhead dicer.
I have a lever Rossi in 45 LC too. Wish I had grabbed a color case 5 1/2" Ruger Bisley Vaquero before they became unobtanium.
