Convince me to get a SP101

...Money isnt a problem, I just dont like spending it. ...

Understandable. Ruger makes quality guns and stands behind them. The SP101 will not let you down.

Is 3" the longest barrel you can get on one? I like longer barrels on .357 revolvers.

Then you may be interested in the GP101...

SP101: fixed sights, short barrels, 5 shot, some with bobbed hammers
GP101: adjustable sights, longer barrels, 6 shot, no bobbed hammers.

Actually, you can get a 3" GP with fixed sights....It basically looks like swelled up SP.

Regarding the desire for a 4" SP101, I believe a 3.06" SP101 balances much like a 4" S&W K-frame, at least I my hands. If one really wants a 4" SP101, however, they do exist, though are discontinued, but seem not to have been made in .357 Mag, just .32 H&R and .22 LR.

For a 4" .357 that will pack easier than an adjustable-sight GP100, Ruger did make some 4" fixed-sight GP100s, with both full-lug and half-lug barrels. Before the GP100, there were the Speed Six and Service Six, both with fixed sights and available with 4" barrels.

Okay, I had one (3 1/8") and concur with all previously said, however.............mine consistently shot low left; like 8 in low and 4 in left at 25 yds; with any load. Sent it to Ruger and it was marginally better but still what I would call a Kentucky windage type gun.
I sold it in a moment of frustration(yes I know it's not a bullseye rev.). I'd buy another in a second if it came with adjustable sights, but I'm gonna buy a Smith model 60 instead. (Yes it will recoil more but I shoot mostly .38's)
I also put on Hogues which for me were a big improvement over stock grips.
Just my small experience here.
