If you can manage a 1/2" more, check out the S&W Model 60-15 Pro Series. Mine has the best trigger I've come across in a new revolver. .357 out of this one is not bad to shoot, and that's coming from someone who doesn't care for it too much out of a Ruger SP101 with the short barrel. Not sure if the barrel length makes the difference or if it's something else, but if I were going to carry a revolver this would be the one.
