Damn!!! I just told myself no more guns for a bit, now I've got to deal with this.
i feel your pain bro. I'm not a wheel gun guy myself, but you know my love for the 10mm

Me neither, but I love my 10's and it would look good beside my super red 44 mag.

overall length is a killer for me: hate 12" wheel guns

Neat and I hope it sells well but not for me as I already have .357, .41, and .44 covered.
Great option for guys who are more semi based and are into the 10mm. Sort of a "drug of entry" by Ruger I guess :-)

The 10mm is an awesome round. While I'm not a big Ruger fan (though I have visited the Dark Side), a 10mm revolver sounds great. It does seem to try and fit in where the .41 Magnum already has a base. We'll see how it shakes out.

Did anyone notice it weighs 54 oz? When you're out of bullets you can use it for a club!
Why do you tempt us so???

Wish that they would do a another run of 10mm Blackhawk's they did that a long time ago for a Distributor , But didn't recognize how cool a setup it was till they were gone.

Way too much revolver for the 10mm round.

Gorgeous. My brain says if I am going to get this, go for .357 Magnum.
But the rest of me says

Agreed. Would be better in the Redhawk or GP100.

Yea, it's best as a moon clipp'ed alternate to a mid size 357 mag model, not an alternate to 44mag, less power, can't use anywhere near the full cylinder length, and smaller charge holes and bore actually makes it heavier. Would be awesome in a 5 shot Sp101 or a gp100 6 shooter. I have a 6"610, actually wanted a 4" when they came back a few years ago, but couldn't get one so snagged the one I did.
It's fun for target work, but the round shines in mid size revolvers. Mine is a little too big for the round, and the Ruger is quite a bit larger. The 310 night guard was epic, probably the best use of the round in a wheelgun, but if there was to be a new production 10, an L frame 6 shooter or a scandium 8 shooter like the 327 chambered in 10 would definitely get be to part with some cash.
The Ruger will never be as smooth as the Smith 610. I used on IDPA when they first came out and it was much handier than the 625. ( I guess some of that could be from the L frame to N frame differences)

A Ruger revolver doesn't have to be as smooth as a Smith, it's built like a tank.
I'll give you that. Look at the Redhawk series.

Unfortunately, Ruger hasn't figured out smooth, strong, and comfortable don't have to be mutually exclusive
