the Ruger, a $280 cowboy holster setup and a box of HSM cowboy loads for $500 which I didn't think was to bad
Not bad at all. The newer guns seem to be better in the throat department than the older ones. My Bisley had tight throats and once I opened them up just .001", so I could push a bullet through with my fingers, groups shrunk considerably. Even if it shoots decent it won't hurt to slug them, and the barrel, to see where you stand. Enjoy the new toy.
