I want a small, light revolver to carry in my pocket

That's just personal preference, though.

I own three Tauruses (Tauri ???) two of which are revolvers and none of which are snubnose, so I can't speak to those. My old auto and my two revolvers, one 6" in .22, the other 6" in .357 with room for 8 on the wheel and compensated, are all excellent weapons. The .357 and .22 are impressively accurate.

However, if you're looking for a snubnose to shoot snakes, I doubt accuracey (shooting at the ground next to your feet) is a huge concern.

a snubbie can be very accurate, I shoot my 2.5" S&W 66(and 19) and 2" 10(and 15) was well as a 4 or 6" gun, I can 9 out of 10 times out shoot(speed and accuracy) guys with tricked out 1911 or pretty much anything someone wants.........snubbies rock! I really find no use for 6"+ guns, unless for hunting(and I dont hunt) IMOP 3" is about the best all around length for a wheel gun

but i know what your saying....arms length it makes no difference
