Your favorite .357 Revolver?
A 6" Smith model 27. I can't for the life of me remember why I traded it to my brother! My only remaining .357 is 4" model 13 that has the smoothest action I've ever felt.

I have several outstanding .357 pistols -- one of the best is the S&W 66-1 with the 6-and-1/8-inch barrel. It is hard not to shoot it well.

I was pleased to see a 27-3 mentioned. I have a couple of 27-2s shown earlier in this thread but also recently acquired a 4-inch 27-3. This one came with Bear Hug Grips as shown. It is a great shooter.

No real history of owning a lot of 357 revolvers but my SW PC 627 is a great 357.

I mentioned it earlier, but here is a picture.

A 3.2" inch Model 66.

^^^ @jhe888 - that is a great-looking revolver, and I suspect it shoots at least as good as it looks!

It is a really good shooter. I seem to have lucked out a bit as it has an especially good double action stroke with no work done to it.

I kinda like my new Colt King Cobra 4.25 inch. The fit and finish is typical Colt quality, the size is perfect, and the trigger pull is nice and smooth. The Python was just too big and pricey.
