While I've decided that the Hogue Tamer grips for my GP100 are unquestionably the best grips for enabling me to comfortably shoot 50+ rounds of full-house .357 magnum cartridges, I still found myself preferring the ergonomics and characteristics of VZ's G10 grips-specifically their Twister and 320 grips.
I experimented extensively with grips for my GP100 last year; shooting full-house 1,250 fps+ 158 gr .357 magnum cartridges primarily, but also some more lightly loaded 1,000 fps 158 gr stuff. I used the gun and grips in multiple IDPA matches, training and EDC throughout a 4 month period in 2022.
When it comes to the 327 cartridge, the gp100’s are much more versatile than the single sevens. The longer cylinder gives you a better selection of bullets when handloading. The single seven is limited to a col of 1.497”. I experimented with all of the .314” calibers for a few years.

There also seems to be some slight side to side play on the hammer. I've looked at a few videos and adding hammer shims seems to look fairly easy to do.
You can shoot these with no problem: .38 S&W Special. .38 Special +P. .38 Special +P+. .357 Magnum. .38 S&W Special is the official name of good old .38 Special. DO NOT confuse it with .38 S&W. .38 S&W will not fit in the chambers of your .357 GP100. If you REALLY wanted to you can shoot these: .38 Short Colt.
I just took a look at the cases for my Single Ten and my GP100 5" and they are absolutely identical. So I would say that they are all the same - unless someone chimes in with info to the contrary. 1954 H&R M1 Garand. Uberti 1873 Cattleman - 7 1/2" .45 Colt. Ruger GP100 Davidson SS - 5" & GP100 Wiley Clapp 3".

To compare prices on these two I will use both MSRP and the retail price listed for both at KYGUNCO. Ruger GP100 MSRP is $929. Retail is $674. ($725 for the stainless model) S&W 686 MSRP is $999. Retail is $807. If comparing like-for-like as in the stainless models the difference in price is negligible. Fit and Finish.
