I'd like to get a .357 with a 3" to 4" barrel for IWB field carry while fishing, hiking, walking, four wheeling, etc. I mainly want it for protection against 4 legged predators.
I'd like something fairly comfortable to shoot accurately with 125-158gr .357, but is also not a boat anchor to carry concealed. Something about the weight and length of a milspec 1911A1 govt. model would probably be good. I don't want a tiny lightweight. I already have a J-frame and can barely shoot it with any accuracy with +p .38, .357 would be out of the question with it.
I guess I'm looking at either a GP100 or S&W K-frame or L-frame. Any comments or experiences with this type of gun for this purpose?
