.357... you can practice all day with .38 ammo, then load it with some nice .357 hollow points and really make someone's day go all to hell. The revolver is easy to fire without complex safety levers or "racking" procedures. Honestly, I have a Smith & Wesson chambered in .45 acp, and while I absolutely love it, my wife cannot reliably rack the slide. If she were to actually have to fire the thing, and it jammed, she would never be able to clear it. With a revolver, if one round fails to fire, you just pull the trigger again.
