I need some help spending my money and figure this is a good place to ask! I am wanting a new outdoors packing gun and gun that goes on trips with me so that I can leave the 9mm at home for the wife. My current collection includes a 7.5" Bisley in 45 colt, and my CCW a CZ P07 in 9mm (I really like this guy and will post a review soon). I am looking at 45s only and I reload/ Cast.

A) Ruger Blackhawk 4 5/8 in 45 colt, similar to what I have similar feel, good training, could shoot the same loads as the bisley

B) Ruger Redhawk 4" 45 colt, I really like the way these look and it has DA although 99% of the time I shoot SA. Again same loads as the Bisley.

C Ruger 1911 Just because I think I need a 1911, with 200-250 SWC running ~800 fps that should kill anything that needs killing (hogs and methheads).


BTW I kinda like Rugers.
