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.


Not all "western revolvers" were SA. There was the Starr DA in about 1858.
I think it had some feature that allowed you to load all 6 cylinders
safely.
