In the past, I have carried a Model 63 four inch barrel or a 5.5 inch Ruger Single-Six .22 mag for woods/farm duty. More recently, I have been carrying a Model 36-1 three inch Chiefs Special in a Lobogunleather flap holster. I load the first chamber with CCI Snake shot, and the remaining four with 148 grain DEWCs over 4.5 grains of Unique. A little more "oomph" than a .22, but in the same compact package.
