They have been available for a while. I have one of the first that came here I believe. They are very nice. Last one left to find is a S&W 610 but the GP100 Match Champion is very nice e

I definitely don't have all of them but I do have a few. The only one missing is a S&W 610. They are not up for sale very often.
 
Bren 10, no, I think I've given up on that one. As for the 1006, I'm working on one but the seller is not really interested in selling...lol

Are you putting .40 and 10mm through it?

I believe I saw something on one of the US gun TV shows that these guns do not like .40 ammo, head spacing issue I think. The .40 needs a thicker moon clip than the 10mm to be reliable.
 
William Arms has a Super Redhawk in 10 mm at their shop. I have held it in may hand, the thing is a tank and a bit more money.
 
I have not tried 40 yet but as stated in another post, there is lots of threads on the Ruger forum saying 40 does not work well in it.

Could be the cartridge is short compared to the length of the cylinder and the bullet jump to the forcing cone is not conducive to accuracy. The 40 is a pretty short cartridge. I suspect accuracy would be sufficient for social purposes.

I would have to check again, but I my memory doesn't fail me the issues were mainly about the 40 rounds not going off.
I just bought 4 box of 10MM UMC I may end up reloading some lighter loads.

The gun itself is sweet, but honestly, a 357 is less of a hassle since you dont HAVE to use moonclips.
P.S. the GP100 match champion does work without a moonclip but of course the extractor does not.

I need starline to make some 10mm Auto Rim RMS brass :)
 
I got the 6.5 Super Redhawk, 5" GP-100 blued, and a 6.5 Blackhawk convertible from Clay, but haven't been to the range yet. I have a feeling I better get the casting gear fired up.

Those 5" half lug blued versions are the nicest GPs to hit the market imo. I've seen them in 44 special, 357 and 327. Maybe they do a run in 10mm. I hope more make there way up here.
