[QUOTE=mj1;27128058]Not a waste of time, I was just stating that I already said all that in the OP.
Since the 686 only comes in 357 I figured calber was a given.
Finish I stated SS (Stainless Steel) and stated 6" 6 shot.
For use I said cast shooting and maybe hunting.
Since the 357 is not a brown bear caliber, I guess I figured pig and dear size game was a given.Failure is not an OptionComment

No 686 to shoot or local to handle.Failure is not an OptionComment

S&W is like a prom queen.
Rugher is like a tom boy that likes to have fun in the mud!
Take care

I like S&W revolvers but don't own one with a Hillary hole.
Want one in 45ACP but haven't found one without a Bill Cinton beard...My mother always told me to be careful what you ask for.
Just one more piece of parental advice I stupidly ignored.

Pretty close in comparison. I would say the S&W is a touch more elegant while the Ruger is a bit more rugged. Either is a superb choice for a workhorse .357.
As for the "only get a pre-lock S&W" silliness, ignore it. The only reports of failure due to the lock always start with, "My friend this happen to him..." I've run a 686SSR in competition for several years. Thousands of rounds driven hard through the gun and not even a hiccup of any kind, let alone due to the lock.Last edited by Gryff; 07-31-2022, 6:14 PM.My friends and family disavow all knowledge of my existence, let alone my opinions.Comment

Life's journey is not to arrive safely in a well preserved body, but rather to slide in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "holy schit...what a ride"!!

If you can find a pre lock S&W 686 in your travels buy it. If not...The Ruger is a solid revolver also.Comment
