What about a model 27?
686 on left, 27 on right.
Personally, if I needed to maximize the 357 magnum and wanted to keep weight down, I’d probably just go with a 329 and use light loads with it.
26.5 oz and I could throttle it up to loads no 357 could duplicate if I wanted to. Even with 2” less barrel length.
But it’s been a number of decades since I pushed 357’s to the edge.
