Here's a nice article featuring the Ruger Turnbull Bisley Blackhawk. A very beautiful and well made piece. Turnbull does some of the best color case hardening I have ever seen.

I've always like the case hardening look.  A revolver and lever action pair would be nice.  Doesn't that finish need quite a bit of care to maintain?

I don't think so. However, I do know that over time the finish (just like bluing or nickel plating) does wear off.

I hope before I get too old to shoot that I can own a Gary Reeder custom Balckhawk. But that Turbull Bisley would be nice, too.

Get one of each.  And no time like the present!

Wow. 
Great looking revolver!

Really liked his testing methods.

Really liked his testing methods.

yes, I subscribe to his channel.  he does some very good comparisons and videos

44 vs 357 Video

That was a pretty cool video and I learned some stuff.  Glad he got away from the "what's fair" comparisons, but I can understand why he did.  Glad he did the "what's more realistic" parts.  Like for 9 mm and say .40 S&W, a 147 gr 9 mm and 150 ish 40S&W are quite different. 

The "body" targets was interesting, but maybe a waste of some good pork chops.   

The tests on the CMU blocks was also interesting, but by that time in the video, I was half expecting the 44 mag to vaporize the blocks.  Haha. 

The speed tests on the plate rack was good too, but I think he was sandbagging a little. . .

Anyways, as I say all of that, I'm thinking I should get a 44 mag.

you should get a 44mag. 
everyone should have at least one.

I have two .22's.  That adds up to one .44, right?

well........not quite, but its a start.   

I love the 22LR too

I have .22LR, 5.56/.223, 7.62x39, 7.62x54R, 9MM, .38, .357, and .45ACP calibers I'm already stock up.  I don't need another one, especially a larger, heavier and more expensive pistol caliber.

When I do add another, it will probably be a rifle, like .308 for the M1A I'm contemplating.

that's a nice collection of calibers
308 M1A is definitely a great choice too
