Best and cheapest do not go together.

When you say "cowboy revolver" I asume you then mean a single action revolver.
Ruger Bearcat or Single Six are good.
Herbert Schmidt Model 21

Ruger single six is the "best" in all liklihood. But certainly not the cheapest.

I have a Herbert Schmidt that I picked up at auction for about $175.00 that I REALLY like. Reliable, accurate, and well finished is how I'd describe it.

Herbert Schmidt Model 21 is what ive got I picked one up for 50$ in EE it shoots very well. But I am finding it hard to find parts links?

 

[BEARMAN]

For parts for the HERBERT SCHMIDT both Marstar and Numrich Gun Parts list them as SMALL FRAME .22 or GERMAN SINGLE ACTION .22, they then list all the different names they were sold as.

Unless you want to go bulleye shooting, a .22cal cowboy will make you bore soon. Try going to www.marstar.ca and look for Pietta single action revolver in 357 magnum. They are well made and with reasonable price. You can shoot .38 for cheaper ammo.

What cal. is it?

 

[John Sukey]

Just a point, if you want to do "cowboy shooting" a .22 will not qualify.

As for "cheap" the stench of inferior quality lingers long after the joy of low price.

You get what you pay for.

I've been considering buying a Herbert Schmidt .357 that I heard was for sale for $150 with holster in excellent condition.
