I sometimes carry a S&W 351Pd in 22 mag. I like the light weight and 7 shots. I load it with 40g gold dot SB ammo. It's the only load that expands from the short barrel.
I thought I was going to have to use it yesterday when 2 pit bulls ran into my yard towards my kids while they were playing. My pointy haired wired griffon ran them off into the neighbors yard before I could get a shot. I'm tired of the free ranging pit bills in my neighborhood. There are 2 different pairs that run around.
I also have a 360 pd in 357 that's about the same size and weight but only 5 shot. I carry the rem 125 golden Saber 357 load in it because it's not a full power 357 but hotter than any 38. It's still manageable in an 11 ounce gun.
