I have a 605 that is a good truck/pack revolver. If it gets scratched and nicked, no big deal. It shoot very well, is relatively light weight and unobstrusive.

Last year my son left his Model 17 (941 in 17HMR) with me and I simply locked it away. Yesterday, I was headed out to the local gravel pit to sight in my Single Six with the .22 Mag cylinder. I saw the Taurus laying there and since I had some 17HMR ammo, I grabbed it, thinking I would sight it in for my eyes as well.

Well, that Taurus shot much tighter groups than my Single Six. In fact I shot one of my best handgun groups ever with it. This was all off hand. Well, I was quite pleased with myself and with that "plain jane" Taurus.
