41 REm Mag Bisley vs Super Blackhawk

[Stumps13]

What is the opinion on the Bisley Hunter Frame vs the Super Blackhawk Hunter frame. I have a chance to get either one but I seem to remember something about the Bisley frame NOT being all that good.

If you want to shoot full power loads the Bisley frame handles recoil better. I have a 41 mag bisley blackhawk hunter that I deer hunt wth and wouldn't trade it for the world. Steve

+1 on the 41 mag bisley hunter. I traded a clapped out garand (rack grade) for a stainless 41 hunter and ran from the pawn shop! You will not pry it from my collection...........well.....maybe..........no, I'll keep it. best, greg

There are "haters" out there who don't like the Bisley frame.
And there are some that can't live w/o them, like me.
It all boils down to which fits YOUR hand better.
There is quite a difference so you should try each before purchase.

Yep, some guys just don't like the Bisley frame. Me, I much prefer the Bisley frame. I've fired full house 44 mags from the SBH frame using the stock grips, pachmayers and custom grips and its not not fun; it hurts like heck.

Put a 44 mag or a heavy 45 Colt in the Bisley frame and its much easier to shoot and control... at least in my experience.

I'm a big fan of the Hunter grip frame.

I installed one on a .45 Colt cal. Blackhawk. Since Ruger's never made the Hunter in Blued Steel I've just had to "make my own".

Original 10" Flattop .44 with a few modifications.

And, one, more "homeboy" example, a project in progress, on a 50th Anniv. .44.

JMHO,
