Before I bought my Bisley I went to a couple of gun shows and tried the grips of every single action I could find. The Ruger Bisley definitely felt bigger and my pinky finger didn't feel like it was falling of the end of the grip.

I don't know about the current ones, I just remember when the Bisley first came out, the grips felt the same to me as the SAA. Maybe Ruger has made them a little larger over the years. Who knows. I liked the way the revolver rotated up in my hand, making it a lot easier to thumb the hammer back. I didn't have to shuffle my grip like on some other revolvers.
