Poncho, Maximums were models BNM-7 and BNM-10's that were produced from 1981? until 1984? in .357 Maximum caliber. There were over 16,000 produced, less than 11,500 shipped. Many smiths out there are using them for different caliber platforms and are "cutting" them up every day. It is literally a "stretched" .357 magnum case developed by Elgin Gates as the .357 Super Mag and then worked upon by Ruger and Remington. Federal even had their finger in it a little. Coogs.

GLASSMAN - Only reason I would part with my NIB 10" is I have another 10' that I plan to use in IHMSA matches. Found the NIB Ruger after I bought my shooter. Great guns with the right loads.
