ok,  one more question,  what if i get one with a 12" barrel?  but also get a 6" barrel,   i found one for really cheap with a 12" barrel,  but would like to have it with a 6".  there's no way i can find a better deal, but i was just wondering...  how hard it it to switch up the barrels?  would it void the warrenty?

Go with the 12 if you just gona hunt with it... a 6in is required for hunting.... I hunted with my fathers 357 colt trooper model and it was awsome for the deep dark dank woods... a pleasure to hunt with! 6 in is a good all pourpose  length... And the pistol can be used in firearm restricted areas!  :IBCOOL:

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

What?  You think the barrels are interchangable on a Taurus 66?

Barrel length is 3,4 or 6".    11 3/4" is the total length of the gun.

OK.. I see where they list the 66S as a Silhouette gun with a 12" barrel.

As a medium frame gun in .357mag. STUPID....  You can't even load it hot enough for Silhouette.

And no.. the 66 would require a gun smith to interchange the barrel.  It's not a Dan Wesson!

Get the 6"!  Better yet, Get a Ruger GP100 with 6" barrel. Or a Ruger BlackHawk in 357mag with 6" barrel.
