The little 3.75 is easy packing and mine had that Hi-Viz sight.
Handy on 2 counts since the ammo would be the same as your Hunter, and you can shoot 44Sp from it too.
A Vaquero in 45 is cool since it is light and easy to carry. But you would need to hand load to get the most benefits.
A Bisley in a 45 is very nice, as it can handle the heavier loads. The 5.5 barreled one with a 45ACP cylinder makes for a lot of fun, cheap shooting, and options for hunting or just carrying around a ranch or Farm.
Not as handy as a short barreled pistol. But nice balance.
