For this poll I would like to see what others think if only had to decide on only one revolver.

I have both and voted for the .45. It's really hard to beat a .45 Colt.

I voted 45 Colt . Mainly for the mild side and much lower cost of brass. As I have a 6 shot 5 1/2" Bisley .
Now if it was both 4 5/8" barrels it may well have gone 480.

I bought the 4-5/8" 480 SBH.
I sold my large frame 45 Colts, kept a Harton medium frame Montado in 45 Colt.

I love my Bisley Blackhawk .45 Colt. Like Mr.44guru, I often find myself moving toward my mid frame Blackhawk .44 Special. especially for longer shooting sessions. It is a delightful revolver that is easier on my aging wrist and ears. For trail carry, I defer to my.45, and I find the weight difference negligible. Back on topic- I really want a Bisley .480 in 4 5/8", but I've decided to await the opportunity to shoot one before I commit.

With a small reloading setup, the 480 is a very versatile cartridge. At the top end(110 or 296)I think you would rarely feel under gunned. At the low end (Trailboss) you could shoot a very small animal for dinner and have very little meat loss other than a near half inch hole through and through.

Yup, the "mild to wild" argument favors the larger bore. Will admit, the 480 is a reloaders cartridge.

Put me down for the 45 Colt. I guess I am just a traditional old school old codger.
