Super Redhawk in 10mm

I hear .401 Powermag is next.



Nah... this is Ruger's normally of almost giving the customers what they want. Many ask for a GP100 in 10mm, some overly cautious engineer say "lets do this instead". Viola! Instant boat anchor. I do wonder if they're have some collector appeal years down the road if they flop.

Oh what you just said 100%! This will be another instant "collectible of the week" from Ruger and their distributors! 1/3rd will shoot them (10mm fanatics), 1/3rd will lovingly wrap them in a beaver blanket and vacuum seal them, and the other third will wait 5-10 years and sell trade em off for the .41 GNR version due out in 2026.........
:lol:
Now can I PLEASE get my darned .41 mag Vaquero produced?!?!?

Two changes would help this revolver sell. A 7th chamber and a lighter barrel. At the least Ruger could shorten the barrel to reduce weight. However, it still would be a rather large 10 mm and the 10 mm's best reloads are only slightly more powerful than .357.

WRONG GUN, a GP sized utility revolver in 40 S&W/10mm moonclips is a great idea in 3", 4" and even 6" models that would sell good
Huge hogleg in 10mm, well I would rather have some real horsepower cartridge choices in a frame as big as the Super Redhawk as it already comes with.

I'd rather a 10mm/40 cal Blackhawk.

Another I would rather have a Blackhawk. Take the 357/9mm I recently bought and make it in 10mm/40S&W. I would be a buyer.

I guess that I am a fool.
Never owned a SRH. Never even fired one.
Have 44 mag covered with a Smith 629 6 inch.
Have a few Glocks in 10MM that are light and dependable.
Load for 10MM and have LOTS of brass.
Did not have a revolver that is as easy to mount optics on as the SRH.
Already had a usable optic ready to mount.
Kind of made me feel warm and fuzzy when I picked it up at the recent show.
Guy offered me a screaming deal if I could pay cash.
I kind of needed an anchor for my kayak.




Just another toy for weekends.

You're in luck. Stainless B'hawks in 10mm/40 are available in two barrel lengths.

So, is it accurate Bill?

Only been out once. Shot from a sand bag at 25 yards. Grouped tight. Excited about getting out again for some more testing.

I love the 10MM I have a Colt Delta, RIA Tactical and S&W 610 of 1989 in 10MM The Redhawk is a good gun just wish they would make a GP100 in 10MM in my opinion it would be more "right sized" for the cartridge.
I also have a standard Red hawk , 7 1/2", barrel in 357 mag, and it gets any of the 357 loads that are just too hot for my other 357 revolvers and it eats them like candy.

Second range day. Getting it zeroed with the optics. Great trigger lots of fun.
