Quoted:
Opinions of the revolver? Do you think it was worth the money? Pros and Cons? I found a 95% one for $690, and think that is a lot of money. Considering they retail for $775 or so, I'd jump on it. A regular GP100 would be $6-650 anyhow. |

I've been there, done that. Rugers are OK but I wouldn't own one. Smtihy's are much smoother and better designed revolvers. Buy once, cry once. |

So you haven't owned or shot a Match Champion? |

I have one in stainless. It looks, feels and shoots Great!
Very Nice revolver. I own and shoot Smith's and Colts also. But the Ruger out shoots them all. |

There's no doubt Smiths are more refined, but if you like shooting a lot of stout 357 loads the GP100 will be issue free for a lot more rounds. |

It's a 2014 model; the newer models have adjustable rear sights. I paid exactly $799 for it. |

I have one with adjustable sights.
It isn't any better or worse than any other revolver I have. I have learned to hate the high vis front site. I had to go to hogues because the woodies hit my hand wrong. I cooked up a load using 200gr lead bullets and h110 in 38 cases. It shows promise.

At the last gun show, just after I got done paying for a new 10/22, I wandered around the same vendor's table and saw a brand new Match Champion for $650. I was so pissed that I just spent my money on the 10/22. :( Hopefully next year that vendor has the same deal. |

I don't really like the grip on it. Do like the grip on the WC GP100.
