My wife's gun is a 4 inch S&W Model 681 w/Crimson Trace grips loaded with Remington 125 grain SJHP .38 Special +P. She killed 2 coyotes 25-35 yards behind the house (1 running). You couldn't give her a semiautomatic.

You mean you personally can fire the revolver faster than you can the semiautomatic? The semi is cycling somewhere around a .14 split. Jerry Miculek is somewhere around a .2 split with a revolver. Bob Munden once out ran a 1911 with an SAA .15 to .11. Bump firing vs. Fanning. With a double action, you're eventually outrunning the trigger return spring.
