Ok guys, here's the deal. I'm wanting to purchase a new revolver for plinking/small game hunting. I have a few .22 handguns (naa mini, colt new frontier, and high standard dura-matic) but i'd like to have a DA/SA revolver.
My conditions are that it has to be stainless, at least a 7 shot, and a minimum of a 6" barrel. The only two manufacturers i've found with all the conditions i want are Smith and Wesson and Taurus. I've never owned a smith revolver, but have had a taurus though i never put that many rounds through it.
I don't have a problem paying for quality, but is the smith ($650+ new) that much better than the taurus ($300-400 new)? Do any other manufacturers have what i'm looking for that i have missed?
Any input would be appreciated.
