I'm surprised at how many like the N-Frame .357 Magnums. Seems kind of overbuilt for the cartridge. I sold my 28 years ago. Makes little sense in light of the L and K frames chambered in it.
this actually makes sense!
Having two 3" J's, two 3" K's, 4" GP100 and a 4" Colt Trooper in addition to the 6.5" 27, try firing two boxes, as in 100 rounds, of real .357s through a J-K-L frame size gun and you'll appreciate the extra weight of the N-frame....
95% of the ammo that goes through a .357 are .38 Special or downloaded .357 handloads... Shooting full loads through the 27 is pleasant compare to the others...
