I chased the riddle of steel in J frames for several years. I have small/medium hands and I always assumed I would be able to shoot the smaller J frames better. I accumulated over a dozen.
But I must admit, the first Highway Patrolman model 28, convinced me otherwise. I was shooting with some cop buddies and they kept challenging me to shoot double action to enhance my trigger pull. After a year, shooting single action was like cheating. I also learned that the size and weight of the 28 made for a better platform to shoot DA; at least for me.
My J frames are now seen as pocket guns. My L, K, and N frames are for shooting and now far outnumber the J frames. It's tough sometimes to really compare because of the triggers. Even after action jobs, the J frames just didn't seem as sweet as the others. Smiths kept telling me different geometry.
With my small hands, I'm still shocked how much better I shoot larger wheelguns. for 100 yard plus steel.
