I'm looking for a .357 to carry around out in the field for taking care of snakes and other vermin. I've got a Python, but I'm sort of looking for something that isn't so pretty that I can kind of beat the hell out of and not worry about too much.
After doing some reading here I'm probably going to get either a 686 or a gp100. I'll most likely be buying a used one, and my only real requirement is that it goes bang and is fairly willing to take abuse.
So without getting into too much of a heated discussion, could you please let me know the pros and cons of these guns when compared to each other? I'd be especially interesting in hearing from anyone who owns or has owned both.
Also, if you have any other recomendations please let me know; the only revolvers I own are the python and a ruger .22 so I'm pretty open to anything.
