7 to 8 oz. does make a difference when shooting lightweight 357's. I won't shoot anything lighter than my Mod 60 with a 3 inch barrel. And the I'm using my watered down reloads or Remington Golden Sabers, a mid load 357 factory round with a 125 gr HP.

For pocket work I went with the Mod 638 and a set of CT lasers. The 3 in. mod 60 is used on the belt. The 357 is a great round but to enjoy shooting I think staying in the 25 oz or so with a steel gun is where I draw the line on that round.

Whatever you decide on get something that you will shoot. It's highly unlikely you will ever use the gun for self defense and will enjoy the range time with something you can shoot.
