I would opt for a Colt since it was the dominant gun of the times - - - and the Silver Bullets came from ore mined in a mine owned by the Ranger and his Brother Dan---
a few amusing links..

"""Okay, so where did he get all of these bullets?
The Lone Ranger had a silver mine that he and his brother, Dan, had planned on using for their retirement. A retired Texas Ranger (who knew the Ranger's secret) agreed to work it for him and make the silver bullets. The Lone Ranger and Tonto would periodically visit the old Ranger and stock up on bullets and silver to use to buy goods. (This mine would be the basis of the fortune that built the Reid publishing empire in the Green Hornet.) """

He carried an 1873 Colt Peacemaker. His bullets came from a silver mine owned by the Lone Ranger and his brother Dan. Neat information and I wish he really existed. :)

In the TV series, he carried two Colt 1873 Single Action Army revolvers. AFAIR, the caliber was never mentioned, but they were probably .44 or .45.
