IF you are able to carry/draw/fire the larger caliber "reasonably well" Keep that for S/D since it's pretty unlikely you will ever need to use it for such, and if you did you would be glad you had it. Get a second gun as similar in every way to the first in 22 lr for practice. NOT CC guns, but I do it with my 681 & 617, & it works out nice, especially if they fit in the same holster.
