Five shot capacity: Ruger SP101, Smith model 60, Taurus M85UL or titanium.

Six shot capacity: Ruger GP, Smith 686, Rossi M462.

All .357s, all reliable, all accurate out to 25 yards, further with with the longer barrells, and all relatively inexpensively priced. Your choice of barrel length is available in most (smith model 60 and Rossi 462 are 2" barrell only, but are supprisingly accurate out to 25 yards - I shoot 7" steel plates very successfully with both of them).

Lots of luck with your upcoming new purchase.
