    Best revolver for shooting WC rounds ?

    I'm looking for a new revolver to shoot 38 sp. wadcutters. I have been shooting 148gr. DBWC's in my 357 Vaquero's with good results. Will I get better results with a 38 special chambered gun ? I would like a gun with sights and 4 to 6 in. barrel. Any suggestions ! Steeltown
