Seeking a more hand filling grip for 2.75" Security Six.
I'm familiar with the offerings from Hogue, but would prefer something a bit more compact.
What are some of the other options?
Thank you.

Well, first off,,, you need to determine if it's a "low back" or the "high back" type. Later production guns are the high back, and easier to find grips for. Low back grips,, much harder to find ANY grips for.
You are going to be very limited,, since the gun has been out of production since about 1988.
You are asking for a grip that is "more hand filling" yet you also mention "more compact." Kinda confusing.
Options have been Herrett, Hogue, Traush, (sp?) and factory in general.
I'd suggest you look for a custom maker to fill your desires.

Ser.# 157-XXXXX
Currently wearing some factory "skinnies"
I like the Hogue design, but it is overly long sometimes.

Check out the grips for the SS on Amazon. Jaruwan and other Thailand makers make some nice grips.

I have a set of Jaruwan combats for a j-frame. Feel pretty good, but the two panels aren't matched looking. Right side is highly grained and two toned. Left side not so much.

Now that (at least here in south Florida) the well stocked local gun store is going away my goto supplier for most things is Ebay.

A 157-xxxxx number is a high back frame. More options exist than for the low backs.
I don't have any experiences with foreign made stuff.
Have you tried to find a set of the Ruger factory "Target" grips? They are bigger than the skinny ones.
