I think it all depends on what the OP wants to do with it as to what the best option is. Is it a bear gun for protection ?629 Snub. Going to use it as a backpack gun for hiking ? 629 snub or 3 inch. Belt carry for range use and self defense ? Anything from the 629 snub to either a 4 inch 629 or 69. Range only use ? Either a 69 or 629 in anything from 4" up. Hunting ? Do you prefer to walk while hunting and shoot shorter distances ? 4" 629 or 69. In a blind or tree stand ? I'd start with a 6" 629 and go longer for barrel length if you want a scope and have more room to stretch one out.
Honestly these would be my choices because I have zero experience with Ruger revolvers. Hopefully eventually I can change that.
