10 MM

[2HOW]

Hey guys I am new to the 10mm and am thinking of getting the S&W 610 6.5"which shoots the 10 and the 40. What are your thoughts?

Get it

Seems pretty awesome.

The second advantage of a 10mm revolver is the 610 also chambers .40 S&W cartridge.  While the 10mm is clearly a superior hunting cartridge, the .40 S&W is much more common and cheaper to shoot.  Additionally, all major manufacturers make .40 S&W personal protection ammunition with the latest bullet designs, while few make 10mm ammo with the current generation of self defense bullets.  So, .40 S&W ammo may be better for self defense applications.

These two advantages mean that one revolver can be used for plinking, self defense, and hunting…without a decrease in reliability in virtually any environment…simply by choosing which ammunition to feed it.

The S&W 610 retails for $980, but I have seen them significantly cheaper at some dealers looking to move them due to a lack of interest.  The funny thing is, I imagine that they are not selling as well as other Smith products due to a lack of advertising, not due to a lack of interest.  If more people knew about them, they would probably be selling a little quicker with the dealers I talked to.

Sounds like an all around great revolver. Close to a grand for a revolver, but one to hold onto.

DustinL, I had one and it shot like a laser, with .40 or 10mm, I sold it only because it would not do anything my .44 or .41 would do. If you like the revolver over the auto, get it and you will be pleased. I still have a Glock 20, because it holds 17 rds, other than that the S&W was a great wheelgun and I would recommend it again and again.
