610 Performance Center?

If I were to look at the -3, it would be a 4”; the 6.5” just doesn’t balance as well for me. For me, it’s a bit muzzle heavy. I bought my 6.5” 610 only because pre lock 610s are not easy to find, especially a 5”. A bird in the hand…
 
...and while I also like the 4" bbl it seems a bit neutered on this frame.
Anyone have any experience with balance and feel of 4" vs 5" 610?

Personally I like 5" barrels for general purposes, as well as their feel. Probably only get ~45fps more from a 5" than a 4" revolver so it's not a game changer.

Compared to a pistol it's the revolver's barrel-cylinder gap that make the biggest difference I'd say, performance wise.

In my LabRadar chrono test below the 5" M1006 (actually only a 3.98" bbl.) easily out-performed (+97mv/92me) the 4" M610, which only equaled the 3-1/2" M1013 (actually only a 2.75" bbl).
