Let me offer you a different option. You mention hiking and camping. When I'm walking around in the woods, having a "brick" on my side isn't always comfortable. The GP100 is an excellent revolver. However, it weighs right at 40 oz empty. The 686 is similar. However, the 4.2" Ruger SP101 is only 29 oz empty. Granted, you loose one round but that 11 oz you save sure does make up for it.
