COMPARING KIMBER 357 MAGNUM 2" 6RD REVOLVER WITH RUGER SP101 357 MAGNUM 2.25" 5 RD REVOLVER.
KIMBER 23 OZ, RUGER 26OZ. KIMBER 6 RDS, RUGER 5 RDS. SHOULD I OPT FOR THE LIGHTER 6 ROUND OR THE HEAVIER 5 ROUND REVOLVER. THINKING THE HEAVIER MAY BE MORE ACCURATE. COULD BECOME TIRING TO CARRY. KIMBER IS LIGHTER. MAY NOT BE AS ACCURATE. LIGHTER WEIGHT MAY MAKE IT EASER TO CARRY .
LOOKING FOR IMPUT AND OPINIONS.
THANKS

Hi Chester and welcome. I would opt for the lighter 6rd Kimber. Accuracy will not be that much of a difference and with just a little practice, likely no difference at all, especially at self-defense ranges. The lighter carry weight &, one extra round is more than enough benefit to justify the choice. Comfort and capacity are the name of the game these days when accuracy is similar. Cheers, stay safe and enjoy!
