What is your single action revolver? Do you like it? Pros/Cons?
I am thinking about getting a blackhawk in .357. Old Timey looks and adjustable sights. I like the Vaquero, but I don't want to pay $$$ for a revolver and have to aim "three inches left and one inch high" to hit something.

I loved my .44 mag Vaquero. It pretty much hit where I pointed it for me. Regrettably, hard times made me and my beloved Vaquero part ways.

Had a .45 Colt Blackhawk that I really liked. A burglar liked it too! I chose the Blackhawk because of the adjustable sights.
May get another one someday.

.45 Colt 7 1/2 inch barrel New Blackhawk. Shoots awesome. Used by Dad's .357 Blackhawk to harvest my first pistol deer, a doe at 25 yards several years back.

I like the authenticity of the cowboy style single action revolvers; grooved rear, blade front, non-adjustable sights. And of course you'll need a cowboy belt rig and a lever gun that shoots the same ammo. Never know when the indians might attack the wagon train?

I've got the .44 mag Super Bhawk. Love it. Dropped my last deer with it and some of Steveb's cast lead deer hammers.
I want to eventually get the .357 as well. I bought a One Ragged Hole rear sight for I highly recommend that as well. PM inbound Sas.

I had a .357/9mm "new blackhawk" for a couple years... It had a HAIR trigger, and was very accurate, for what it was... I traded it for a 30-06 rifle, though...
