Re: S&W 617 q
I'd go with the 6" 10-shot model. Less reloading and more shooting. Cylinder is plenty strong enough for the .22 rimfire cartridge. 
Re: S&W 617 q
For a gun the size of the 617, why not go with the 10 shot. Now the smaller 63 is the perfect size for the small 6 shot cylinder.
Re: S&W 617 q
How is extraction when dealing with 10 cases .?
That’s a dash 6 , not 6” , sorry for the confusion.

Re: S&W 617 q
My shooting partner has a ten shot 617 with 6" barrel and has no problem ejecting for instance five fired rounds occupying only half the cylinder. There's no binding at all.
Re: S&W 617 q
I have a 4" 10 shot 617-6 (not 317). Easy ejection and accurate. Individual guns will most likely influence accuracy/build quality more than dash numbers.

Here's a couple of targets - first is 25 yds and 20 shot one is at 100 yds.
