I got lucky on that one
No time like now for a 586. Prices on the six-shot 586 and 686 seem pretty depressed to me, and it probably won't last forever.
The only exception right now seems to be the 8⅜" versions; that barrel length is 'hot' right now, and prices range from high to absurd.
Other than that, I'm sure it sounds silly, but I don't like shooting short brass in long chambers.
I got away with low volumes of .38 Special in .357s more than a few times, then shot a very large amount in one particular 686 and never could get it clean to my satisfaction. I suspect the last .135 or so of each chamber was at least somewhat eroded, but I had no way to get a good look at them. I only know they wouldn't come clean, and I tried every trick in the book, plus a few others that weren't.
