I think you have an excellent combo already!

My choice for .45 ACP revolvers are the shorter barreled 625s. Generally fired DA.
My 25-5s are more accurate than any of my blued .45ACP S&W revolvers, but none is a 25-2. M1917s and a very nice 1955. All of which have ludicrous 0.457-0.458" cylinder throats.
Even the "big throated" early 25-5s aren't that loosey-goosey!
