I and a close friend both have USFA single actions with the standard grips frame.  I have no experience with the colt bisley grip.  How well do these handle recoil for the larger caliber 44 and 45s?  A new 38 special Bisley has been added to the single actions he shooting, but recoil even with the old 38/44 loads will be very mild.  I know that the Ruger bisley grip is noted for handling the recoil of hot loaded 44 and 45s well.  The colt bisley, however I believe is a smaller grip but long enough to get all my finger around.  Also we are not going to be loading a USFA single action to the same levels as a ruger. I would be interested in anyones experience with the colts versions of the bisley.
