So, I have pretty much decided to get a .357 to take when I hunt, fish, hike, etc. and I have settled on a S&W. My questions are, what should I get, a blued or stainless steel revolver and 4" or 6" barrel? Where I am buying this I think I can order either a 586 (blued) or a 686 (stainless). The 686 was the model that was at the store when I looked. When I was talking to the dealer he told me I can get either the 2.5", 4" or 6" barrel, they will order the one I want. I did some reading today and it sounds like the 6" is the best for the .357 cartridge, but it is bigger. I really like the looks of the 4" barrel but I would rather have a better performing revolver than one I think looks the best. What do you guys think, are there advantages and disadvantages that I am missing?
