I'd like to have a 586 for bullseye type participation because not many use revolvers. My other target gun is a 17-6 with a six inch barrel. It feels good, well balanced. What are your thoughts on the 8" barrel? Too long for the competition shooting?

While looking for more revolves to buy, I came across a graphic that presents the various Smith and Wesson revolvers by Frame.. I have a model 28, and it sure doesn't look like an N frame. The new release of the model 27 is an N frame. Will someone be so kind as to enlighten me as to the...

I purchased a 17-6, which has a reputation of being an accurate revolver for target shooting. What .357 revolver also has a reputation for accuracy? I realize all guns are designed to be accurate, and yet is seems some a better than others.
