I have also settled on a cheap vertical carry sholder holster for my 7.5 inch barrel revolver. I have a Galco Wheelgunner for my shorter 4 5/8 inch barrel revolver or I carry it in an old Bianchi Lawman. I like the versatility of the Wheelgunner but I have never gotten used to the hammer thong on that holster. My Bisley single six is a 6.5 inch and rides in a cheyenne style holster on a .22 cartridge belt.
