Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns Favorite Revolvers?

I feel it is. Some shooters claim they prefer the plow handle but I much prefer the Bisley. Linebaugh won't build his 475 or 500 on any other SA frame if that says anything. The difference is notable to me in 41 and 44 magnums and heavy 45 Colt. I've shot heavy loads in all three in both styles of grip frames and will take the Bisley over the plow handle.

Make no mistake, when you drop the hammer on a full throttle 480 or 500, even on a Bisley grip frame, you won't have any doubt the gun went off. I don't shoot many heavy loads in either. I'm quite content with really big bullets going 900-1000 fps for most of my work. I don't know that I would care to set off a heavy 500 Linebaugh load in a plow handle grip.
