Here is what Ruger has to say about the new best millimeter wheelgat.

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE-RGR) is excited to introduce the GP100® Match Champion™ revolver chambered in 10mm Auto. With its factory-tuned action and ergonomic enhancements, the Match Champion delivers fast, accurate shots and takes the popular GP100 to the next level.

The GP100 Match Champion in 10mm Auto stands out against other revolvers with its polished and optimized internals, a centering boss on the trigger and centering shims on the hammer to produce a smooth double-action trigger pull and a crisp and consistent let-off. Together, the adjustable rear sight and quick-change fiber optic front sight create a great sight picture for rapid acquisition on both plates and targets.

Featuring a 4.20″ cold hammer-forged barrel, the GP100 Match Champion in 10mm Auto has a half-lug design with an 11-degree target crown for competition-level accuracy, a chamfered cylinder and ejector for easy loading and custom Hogue® hardwood grips with stippled sides. This new configuration ships with three moon clips that allow for convenient loading and aid in the ejection of spent cartridges.

The new 10mm GP100 Match Champion will command an MSRP of $969, but as previously mentioned street prices should hover in the $750 to $800 range. Make sure to check out the Ruger website for more information.
