The difference between a Commander and full-size albeit minimal, gives a very different feel/balance (at least to me) that is way out of proportion to the actual difference in weight. For any competition, I would opt for the extra sight radius, the extra muzzle weight (where it makes the most difference), of a full-size even though I prefer my Commanders to the full-sizers.
Shoulder and look down the sights of a Kentucky rifle if you have the opportunity, and notice how the long barrel (so much weight forward) enables the sights just to hang steady in the off-hand position.
