Yep 0.043" difference

0.4000"
-0.3570"
0.0430"

Actually, for bore I think it is .392 for 10mm and .350 for 357 mag. The above are the groove diameters.

Well yea, if you want to put it that way... ${$default_cool_smiley}$

Ruger offered the Redhawk in .41 Mag if you can find one.

I agree on the Charter Arms and I have inquiries at a couple of local LGS that carry/order Charter. Currently supplies are limited/unavailable.

I also messaged S&W a while back.
I wonder if they forwarded my request too!

Nice caliber, but extremely hard to find reloading components for. .40cal/10 mm has so many bullet and powder variations.

I would love to see one that is 10mm magnum / 10mm auto

similar to the way that the gp100 is 357mag / 38 special.

Just because what could be better than 10mm? 10mm with more powder!

Bruno, short of using Moonclips, both the Auto and Magnum headspace off the case mouth. If you dropped an Auto into the Magnum cylinder, the Auto would keep going until it reached Magnum depth. The .38/.357 gets away with it due to them head spacing off the rim.

Pinscrews nailed it.

But, with moon clips, it would handle 40 S&W, 10mm Auto and 10mm Mag. ${$default_cheesy_smiley}$

I was fully expecting to need moon clips, they are like speedloaders but you dont have to pull them off!

And yes it would be freaking sweet to have a revolver that shot .40 10mm and 10mm magnum!

I would like to have the Ruger Blackhawk in 38-40 and 10mm. If I didn't have such a long list of other "wants" ahead of that one I'd pick one up.

Well, there are many that will do 10mm/.40 cal S&W.

The GP100 will not do 10mm Mag, that is a little to much for the conversion guns per Mr Clements. You would have to get a S&W 610 and ream the cylinder.

A friend and I just sent off a couple of Ruger GP100s to Mr. Clements about a week ago. We bought a couple of the adjustable sight, 3 inch .38 Specials to send to him. They are going to have his slab-side barrel treatment. I plan to put these grips on mine:

They gave basicly the same answer for the M&P10mm some years back... ${$default_roll_eyes_smiley}$

An every single time I send them a message about a MP 10mm, they give me the same answer. It's only been like 10 years since I have been emailing them once a month. I even tried the M&P 10th anniversary 10mm and got the same answer.

I now have a GP-100 at Mr. Clements shop. I arranged to have the gun broker dealer ship it directly to him. Hopefully I'll have it in hand by this time next year.
