I have a 6" barrel S&W 617 10 shot . . . it's incredibly accurate . . . but they are not cheap.
An older 617 is what I want, not the -2 with aluminum cylinder but like a -4 w/ the stainless steel cylinder. This thread got me thinking I need a 22 revolver, I always like the Ruger Single-Six but want more rounds so I considered a picking up a Single-Ten on the used market. The reality is though I'd rather have an S&W DA over a Ruger SA so 617 it is. I understand there is a version of the 617 that has the same barrel profile as the 17 rather than the usual full-underlug, that would be perfect but I suspect hard to find if not cost prohibitive. Research time.
