I didn't see any mention how caliber affects balance. A SAA in .32-20 feels like twice the weigh of a .45 out on my extended arm, more so with the 7 1/2inch thicker barrel. I don't have a .32-20 but have hefted them. I have .45s in 4 3/4 & 7 1/2, one in .38 Colt 7 1/2 & several in .38-40 5 1/2. To me the .38-40 5 1/2 & .45 7 1/2 seem pretty much alike in heft. I don't shoot any of them much and can't pick a favorite from experience but either of the last two are OK with me.
