I carry a 4" Model 65 in a Crossbreed Supertuck in comfort all day. A good belt is as important, or more, than the holster. I use either a five stitch Wilderness Instructor's belt or Carhartt two layer Cordura/leather belts. OWB will not carry the weight any better on a flimsy belt.

I am waiting on a K&D Cochise Defender for it and will report back after receipt and break-in.

IME, revolvers are kinder than semi autos when worn IWB due to their rounded contours. Revolver grips are also easier to hide due to the fact that you can change them so easily. I have found that Hogue's Bantam grips make the round butt of a K or L frame disappear almost as easily as that of a J frame.
