A dissenting opinion...
I have owned a couple dozen 357's in the past 40 years, including very nice 27's, 28's, 13/19/66's and a slick DW Pistol Pack and an assortment of Ruger DA's from the earliest Security Sixes forward. But the best shooting of 357's I ever owned were an old '70's Trooper MKII and this old nickel Lawman MKII, show with a 50 yard rested group.

Maybe I've just been lucky, but I will take a Mark III hands-down over any 357 this side of a Python. Unless they're 900 bucks, which would encourage me to simply shop around for another one.
