I own 2 K-frame M-19's and all I shoot out of them are 357 mag 158/160 grain and I love them. The 38 special only K-frames will hold up for an extremely long time.

I rather not use any of the over powered stuff like the Buffalo Bore. I'm sure something like the cast bullets Steelhead posted will do everything I'll ever need with less recoil on me and wear and tear on the gun.

I haven't bought a handgun in forever so I'm kind of excited to get my hands on this one.

Thanks for all the advise guys.



Not sure if you reload or not but Remington has a load out called HTP (High Terminal Performance) it's a 38 special +P but it's the old FBI load 158 gr Lead SWCHP. I haven't tried the Buffalo Bore Outdoorsman but I might try to find a box. I don't have a model 10 but I have a Ruger Speed Six 4" 38 special. Not rare, but very uncommon in terms of production numbers. I say not rare, because too many people associate RARE with more valuable, and demand is what determines that. I don't really consider my gun nearly as in demand as yours. Again, nice find.

Mannlicher, that's the best looking 10 I've ever seen. Like the look.

Rufus do 357 mags fit in the cylinder? And if they do, do you think they bored the cylinder to fit the 357 or changed the cylinder?

S&W produced Model 10's in 357. It was the 10-6 and the precursor to the Model 13.

Don't forget the stainless 64 4". Not as pretty as a polished blue 10, but it's OK.

Yep, notice that the 10-6 is not listed.

Compare the dates. Later when the model 13 came along.

Remember the old Winchester Hi-Vel ammunition? (Pre +P)

When I bought my 10-5 from an old fella's wife, It was loaded with the Hi-Vel and 44 rounds were left in the box he had. It was a nightstand gun. About 98%. She said he never shot it that she new of.

I just added the parkerized Tyler Tgrip adapter. When my gunsmith rebuilt the revolver, he gave it a parkerized finish.

If your gun is a ....


10-5 Standard weight barrel: They changed the front sight blade from .100" to .125" in width.

10-5 Heavy weight barrel: They eliminated the screw in front of the trigger guard. (The front screw was eliminated on the standard barrel at 10-4)

Not a stainless fan but that really looks good with the dark grips.

Very nice!

So you have the improved (in my opinion) front Blade. Good

This is my favorite stainless version, Model 64. It's the first one I recall seeing with the tapered barrel so I bought it.

I like the round butt. I wish my M65s had one.
