Which Ruger Single-Action...?

Trying to make up my mind fellers, between the stainless Vaquero and the stainless Blackhawk in .357 Mag with 4 5/8" barrel. I'm leaning toward the new and slimmer Vaquero.
What's yer flavor?

I'll be the first to do it:

Since I don't have any preference either way, I officially like pie.

Blue

I like waffles.

Vaquero or Blackhawk, I'd go with Blackhawk. .357 is the right caliber, too.

But blue, please, not stainless.

The beefier frame would be an advantage if I planned to use a lot of heavy loads...Something I don't plan on. The new frame of the Vaquero has the feel and balance of the Colt SAA, which is the upside for me.
