Trigger is excellent dbl action and single action. No end shake. Good to excellent cylinder lock when trigger is pulled.
Load data w/Unique and WSF and lee 160 gr w/WIDE meplat?
Oops almost forgot. Looking for a nylon cross draw holster made of nylon.
Thanks

Sir,
I would imagine that the most significant difference you will notice between the two is the pronounced difference in where the weight of each gun is centered. The 28 as you know has a larger frame and cylinder, and a thinner barrel, all of which centers the weight further back, toward your hand. The 686, with its thicker barrel and full underlug, will feel more front-end heavy.
Enjoy your new gun.
