I guess this post mostly concerns target shooting. My model 60 no dash is very accurate at 25 yds when target shooting. In a SHTF situation you're gonna be all over the place. Practice,practice,practice.

Comfortable grips play a big part. I have a DS OM with factory grips and a DS 72 with Pachmayrs-I can shoot the latter a lot better and when Colt
introduced the DS 72 one of the changes were more handfilling grips.

I'm a snub fanatic. At 40 to 50 yards, shooting Hyrdo-Shocks, I can make a 32oz. Coke bottle dance 8 out of 10 shots; maybe better. I've got a 642 and a 7 shot .357 by another maker and I love 'um all.
I even like the sub-compact semi-autos better than I do the long barrels.
Just my most humble opinion.

Everything else being equal, it all boils down to sight radius, sight radius, sight radius. Everything else is BS. Short sight radius means more difficult to aim...short barrel means (here again, everything else being equal) stiffer, there for more accurate barrel. Now length of barrel could adversely effect stabilization, however, that is highly unlikely.
Personally, I like snubbies. If I want to shoot something further away...I use a rifle!
