Stinger 327,
Short answer is the same (6,7,8). The real point is, if you are going to shoot 100 rds a month with a few .357 mag in the mix then the S&W 6/7/8 shot or the Taurus or the Ruger will all do the job you want them to do, keep an eye on the side plate screws (replace the front one from time to time). Taurus is still to this day spotty on QC, I tested a .357 from them a few years ago, I trashed the gun in two months only shooting 38spl +P at 1,200 rds. What ever you buy, look it over, take somebody with you that knows revolvers, many S&W's can be full of grit (Inc from PC) barrels not clocked, over tight barrels with pressure ring showing ( new guns this way).
