As Christmas draws closer and my funds tighter, I usually think of what my next revolver will be. So far my revolvers include: 22 magnum Ruger single six 327 magnum single seven 357 S&W Custom Ruger redhawk in 410 GNR by Gary Reeder 44 special ss midframe FA83 premier grade 454 Casull with 45 colt cylinder 480 Ruger SRH (with my Dad in Alaska for bear protection) 475 Linebaugh custom BFR 500 JRH precision center BFR
Not sure what to choose next I’ve narrowed it down to a few. 45-70 BFR, 480 Ruger SBH Bisley, 41 magnum or 45 Colt Bisley and last but not least another FA or go custom really wanting another small caliber .
If all Hope fails save for a 500 Linebaugh BFR next year. Thank you all for listening to my dilemma.

Sure looks like your light on double action and small bores. The new (rumored) GP100 in 327 Fed would sure customize easy and add some diversity.

What a terrible position to be in and I feel for you. Now, let's spend some of your money!
I see 2 holes and they are both single actions but 1 isn't on your list.
I see either a 41 Magnum or 357 Magnum Blackhawk (not the smaller version).
You're kinda all over the map in calibers and action types anyway, so a FA 83 would not be out of the question in either caliber.

S&W 69 = a very handy size packing pistol with enough power to handle most situations.
FA 97 in .327 or .41 mag.
BFR Bisley in whatever caliber you like.
