The new Ruger Single-Ten

[AlbcAlbrr]

I have been wanting a double action 22 for some time now.

Why not just go for a Smith & Wesson Model 63 or 317?

They're very pricey.

Looks cool, but $620?!?!?!

I agree

I agree

Thats MSRP. On average, they seem to be going more for around $500 or less. The MSRP for a Single-Six is the same.

Wonder if there's enough room left in the cylinder for a 22 Magnum conversion down the road?

i thought there was a convertable model.....

Wish it was a convertible. Wonder if it's worth the extra time to reload it.

There is no convertible Single 10 as of yet.

Nope.. and likely there won't be unless they make one dedicated to conversions. From what I gather, the barrel is a dedicated 22lr.. which is a good thing in my opinion as I don't count on shooting anything other than 22lr if I got this. Rather have more accuracy vs versatility on a caliber I might shoot once in a full moon.

The barrel is not a .22lr barrel. It's a compromise barrel. See my posts above.

Thanks for the clarification. I also contacted Ruger just to be doubly sure.

Ruger single-ten

I purchased mine friday. Won't get to pick until the 23rd. A little pricey @ $571.22 out the door, but once I held it I couldn't say no. As for the purists out there knocking on the Williams fiber optic sights, while the gun might look a little better with traditional sights, I prefer to shoot my guns and have them perform at their peak. Know what I have on my Buckmark with tactical solutions 5.5 barrel, as well as my ruger gp-100? Williams Fire Sights. And I love em.

Nice, I'm sure you'll love it. I have the 44 mag Super Blackhawk Hunter and always have a blast shooting it. So far its taken two coyotes and a black bear. Ever since I got it I've had an urge to get its little brother the Ruger Single Six Hunter 22/22mag, but the price has always kept me at bay. List price $777

Yup.. got an email back from Ruger regarding the barrel. Just a standard Single-Six barrel. Shame. I thought it'd have a dedicated 22lr barrel for extra accuracy with that round.

Single -ten accuracy

I don't understand the quibbling over the dedicated lr. barrel bore vs. the convertible. Gunblast.com has a nice review of the new single -ten and according to their ransom rest tests of as low as .8 inch to 1.5 inch @ 25 yards, what the hell more could you possibly ask for? This is purposely built as a plinker, light hunter, and trail gun. If you want a tack driver, to qualify for the olympics drop $1500 and get an Anschutz.
