What do you plan to do?
If you are going to hunt or target shoot, the 6 inch barrel is good. I can hit 2 liter bottles with my 686 at 50 yards. It's a bit heavy to carry, but I like the extra velocity and accuracy to make is useful for hunting should the opportunity arise. The 4 inch guns I've handled felt more balanced and I regret not picking up a pre lock one a couple of years ago for under $400.
