Welcome to THR. First, since you're online, investigate the websites of the major manufacturers. Galco and Safariland come to mind. Wish I could personally advise you, but I've not used a shoulder rig before. Google and THR will be your friends. Please post back with your selection!

The Bianchi X-15 is sort of the industry "standard" design.
It has a wire spring retention device in the front opening of the holster to retain the gun and has been proven over a good number of years.

Galco makes the same basic design, as do several other makers.

Uncle Mike's make good quality nylon holster but they do not have a spring retention system, being basically a belt holster mounted on a shoulder harness.

I'll add a vote too for Bianchi X-15 ........ pretty comfortable and the front break aspect makes for a slick draw.

My experience is with SW 686 but we are in same size ballpark.

I'm sort of shopping around for one, too, Cire. Mine's for a 3" mod 65, but ...

Here's some I've found. Certainly not a complete list, and some may not work for your 6", but it'll give you a sense of what's out there.
