Ruger GP100 Match Champion 357 Mag 4.2" Revolver

Ruger GP100 Match Champion: Built for Competition

The Ruger GP100 Match Champion represents the pinnacle of revolver design for shooters who demand accuracy and reliability. This medium-frame powerhouse combines proven engineering with competition-focused features to deliver consistent performance on the range and in the field.

Cylinder and Frame Design

The heart of the GP100 is its triple-locking cylinder mechanism. The cylinder locks into the frame at three points—front, rear, and bottom—ensuring positive alignment and dependable operation shot after shot. This design also enables easy re-holstering and smooth ejection. The contoured cylinder features light chamfering on the ejector and chamber mouths to aid loading.

Barrel and Accuracy

The Match Champion's 4.2" slab-sided, half-lug barrel is purpose-built for competitive shooting. The 11-degree target crown delivers competitive-level accuracy, while the 1:18.75" right-hand twist with five grooves ensures stable bullet flight. The barrel's half-lug design reduces weight while maintaining rigidity, allowing for quick target transitions without sacrificing precision.

Sights and Controls

A fiber optic front sight paired with an adjustable rear sight provides a fast, visible sight picture in varying light conditions. The patented transfer bar mechanism offers unparalleled security against accidental discharge—a critical safety feature for any serious shooter.

Trigger and Ergonomics

Polished and optimized internals, including a centering boss on the trigger and centering shims on the hammer, produce a smooth double-action trigger pull with crisp, consistent let-off. The custom Hogue hardwood grip with stippled sides provides an ideal grip for competition shooting and accommodates a wide variety of custom grips if desired.
