Ruger "midframe"

Huey, is the midframe (AKA "old frame?") essentially Blackhawk size with a shorter cylinder (and window)? If I've ever run across one in my life, maybe just assumed it was a BH... just calipered my Uberti 1873 clone cylinder, 1.671, and SBH cyl, 1.729... maybe cylinder dia is a better gauge of the "frame size" I'm trying to distinguish.
