A J-frame, the 63 in this case, is probably as accurate as the larger guns but is more unforgiving of a shooter's lack of skill.
After owning dozens of Kit Guns over the years, this is the absolute truth.

The older ones with the 1/10" front sight blade seem more precise on small targets, but they require a lot more concentration to shoot accurately. I guess the only one I shot really well was the Model 35.
