Ruger makes some large caliber revolvers that are "western" looking.
Fine firearms.
The ones I've seen in the .45 ACP caliber are single action only, unless I missed something.
"Western" revolvers were single action. That is part of the charm.
Personally I embraced the 20th century, starting around 1911 ;-)
I do have a Colt Frontier Scout .22 that is "western" but I usually
shoot rat shot out of it.
I like single action revolvers except when it comes to dumping out the
casings or inserting fresh rounds. 
The S&W I have works SA or DA, but loads like other DA revolvers, with a
cylinder that hinges out.
