Yes, they are all chambered in the venerable old .45 Colt, my all-time favorite revolver caliber. This is a truly versatile chambering. While the relatively small Peacemaker is limited to standard pressure loads (a 250 grain bullet at about 900 fps), modern Rugers and such are capable of launching 300 to 320 grain bullets at all of 1,300 fps. I much prefer the original loads, and have found them to be entirely adequate for deer hunting and other such use.

It's really hard to over state the quality of these newest Colts. The photos really don't do them justice - they just "pop" in real life, the colors are just so vibrant and the blueing appears so deep it's almost like you are looking right "through" them. Function is every bit the equal of finish, with the smoothest, crispest actions I've ever seen in a Colt. Anyone who is a fan of the Peacemaker really does owe it to themselves to check out Colt's latest - they really are getting it right once again.
