I sympathize with azmark. I got tired of humping my big bore long barreled revolvers when wandering in the desert and mountains, and bought a S&W 386Sc/S. It's a lightweight .357Magnum, revolver, 2 1/2" with a 7 chambers. Scandium frame, titanium cylinder, stainless steel barrel liner, adjustable sights. Despite being a full sized L frame gun, it weighs a delightful 20 ounces or so. Having 7 chambers to fill gives a lot of versatility. It can handle anything from snake shot to bear loads and everything in between. I load it with a mix of cartridges appropriate to my destination.
