I have a Stainless Taurus 66 .357 with a 6 inch barrel and it has worked well for about 2000 rounds, mostly 6.1 grains of Unique and Missouri Bullets 158 grain LSWCs. It is almost identical to my Smith 686 Stainless with a 6 inch barrel.
They look about the same, weight about the same, and shoot about the same. The major difference is that the Smith's trigger is notably smoother, although the Taurus's is getting better. I got both of them new, and the Taurus cost 1/2 what the Smith did.
And I don't really mind shooting the Taurus in the rain or snow, or leaving it in the barn now and then, which I am loathe to do with the Smith,or even more so with my Colt.
