I love single action revolvers. I have two Virginian Dragoons. One in 357 and the other in 44. I have a Ruger Single Six from 1976. I am looking to add one more to my collection. I really would like a 44Special. But the 45 Colt is pulling me in that direction just because of nostalgia.
I reload all my calibers. If I go with the 45, that means getting all the stuff to set up to reload that caliber. Just an added expense. I own a 44 Special in double action. So I have brass and everything I need for it. But that 45 just wont go away. Other then the nostalgia reasoning I don't think a 45 will do anything better then the 44 can do. I just shoot the Singles for fun. I know you can hot load the 45 to great pressures. And you can get a heaver bullet. But again. I shoot them for fun, I don't really carry them in the forest or hunting. I have a 5.5 in Redhawk for that.
Any suggestions?
