So, what some are calling "Buy A Gun" day is coming up, and I'm thinking I might do just that. I've long hated wheel-guns as dark-age technology, but since getting a 642, I've realized that they're pretty fun to shoot, and think dark-age might be exactly what I'm looking for.
To this end, I've been looking at cowboy-style revolvers, but I know little.
What should one look for in a cowboy revolver? I will likely not be shooting CAS with it, nor hunting, but I do intend to shoot it as a "fun gun".
I intend to shoot it, so is .357 the way to go (over the more expensive .44 or .45LC)?
Are there any cowboy-style revolvers I can load with a speedloader? Any that are double-action?
What about the Ruger Blackhawk? The Vaqueros?
