I just got a SS in 32 H&R magnum and have a question that I need help with for purposes of getting the correct holster. Is my SS cylinder the same size as the more common SS cylinder chambered for the 22? And maybe we need to also clarify frame size in the event this is different between the two chamberings as well. I apologize if this has been covered before. I don't have the same expertise regarding all of the Ruger single action variations, as many of you.
So for anyone who, like myself does not have the knowledge but can use a set of calipers to help out, I am including the dimensions of my 32 SS.

Cylinder Diameter - 1.4375
Cylinder Length (not including either the ratchet boss or front boss) - 1.406
Frame opening height - 1.4545
Frame opening length (actual frame- not the barrel face) - 1.556

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks guys, Ed
 
I did a quick check of my 9.5" barreled Single Six .22 LR/.22 WMR.

Cylinder Diameter - 1.419"
Cylinder Length (not including either the ratchet boss or front boss) - 1.404"
Frame opening height - 1.457"
Frame opening length (actual frame- not the barrel face) - 1.569"
 
Years ago I had a couple of Single Sixes in .32 H&R Magnum. Both fit in a Single Six holster made for the .22LR/.22 Magnum model.

On Ruger's website they show that both the Single Six Convertible in .22LR/.22 Magnum with a 4.62" barrel to have the same overall length of 10.25" as the Single Seven in .327 Federal Magnum with a 4.62" barrel.

Ruger also carries a line of Triple K holsters and have them listed as being for the whole Single Six Family, including 6, 7, and 10 round revolvers.
