"Wanted a 22 mag.for a bug gun or just for plinking so I ordered a S&W 351 C."

Don't mean to throw cold water, but I believe a 351 PD (exposed hammer) is a far better choice. Unless you live at the range, given the heavy 351 DAO trigger, it's much easer to learn to hit what you aim at if you use single action. And my 351 PD has never snagged in my pocket.

If you don't pocket carry, get any kind of minimal belt holster.

The most effective SD ammo is 40 gr. HP (CCI or Win Super X), or Win Supreme 34 gr. HP. The latter out-penetrates anything I have found, yet has just an insignificant few ft. lbs. less than the 40 gr. ammo.

The 351 makes a good "always" gun; it has a mystique all its own.
