That kind of customer service was my experience from Ruger also. Good company, IMO..Happy Birthday! I touched off a .44 magnum many years ago. What a blast! Too much gun for me, though. I share your affection for .44s--have a few "cowboy load" conversion cylinders for my 1858 Remington replicas.
I'm butting in just because of my love for Ruger. Y'see, I bought a 50-year-old Bearcat from Red's Trading Post on Gunbroker. Red's said it was in perfect condition. Ruger just informed me that it's beyond repair. But here's the thing--because Ruger didn't want me to be sad, they're sending me a brand new Bearcat to replace the paperweight I bought from Red's Trading Post. I've never before received such awesome customer service.
Can't advise you on the Blackhawk particularly, but you're sure on the right track with a Ruger.
(Single Six convertible x2, Birdshead Wrangler, Bearcat and now TWO of them!)
