components it makes some sense and is an astonishingly efficient round for the revolver. The .40 S&W is so easy to get as to loaded ammo, and components. The ballistics are the same in a revolver as a sealed breach semi-auto. I'm not sure why, just is. The 180-200 gr. usually runs 1000-1100 fps from my 6". Actually so close to actual factory 10mm ballistics not to matter much. However all you need to do is seat bullets to 10mm OAL and it IS a 10mm.

Which is to say a bit better than the .38-40 Win. ever was and with half the powder.

In a DA gun the .40/10 is even more versatile as it is totally interchangeable with the full moon clips. You can just go wild. If I were to critique the Single Six big bores I'd only say I'm a bit surprised for their compact stature they are only a few ounces lighter than a Med. chassis Blackhawk. That surprised me a little. I think Ruger should make the Single-* in both .357 Magnum and .400 cal. Gary's .38 Super chambering was so far ahead of the game, they could do that today with no modifications if they wanted to. Where are you Ruger?! Go for it.
