I think the plow handle actually looks better but it sure doesn't feel better when the recoil gets up there, at least for most of us. You can take a load that's really being uncomfortable in a regular Blackhawk & put it in a Bisley & you'll swear it's not even the same load.
Dick This has been my experience too, a world of difference in felt recoil with 300 grain .45 Colt +P Buffalo Bullet factory loads. Me, too, and my hands are not large at all. Thanks, Max. After reading down to your post I understand what I need to do!

I like both the Bisley & standard. Each have their purpose.

How does the bisley grip compare to the standard grip on the Rugers? I would hate to buy another Ruger 44 mag or such just to hate it for beating hell out of my middle finger with the trigger guard and then sell it in a month. To me the Bisley comes into play for really hard-recoiling stuff-above standard 44 Mag's. The Bisley grip reminds me of double action recoil.

The grip fills your hand out and it limits movement. Plus, Jack Huntington (who did all of those grips) removes a little grip material that gives you more clearance. When I endurance tested the new .480 Ruger Super Blackhawk Bisley, I had a knot on my middle knuckle from repeated contact. However, when I would shoot my .500 Maximum (with a Huntington modified and gripped Bisley grip frame) off the bench, the only time the trigger guard would make contact with my knuckle is if I didn't use enough grip tension. Otherwise, it wouldn't hit my knuckle at all. Doesn't seem like it would work, but it makes a world of difference. This^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I prefer the Bisley grip. But not the current factory grip scales that Ruger puts on. To me they are too thin and have 90 degree edges along the grip frame.
I like the Hogue gunfighter grip.
I am sure, made to fit grips are the best way to go, from the reports that I have had.

Like nearly everyone else has said, "make mine a Bisley". To me, they handle recoil so much better than the standard plow handle grip frame.
