Talked to the manager today who ordered the gun for me. He put the order in and one of the Buyers did the actual order. He doesn't know if the Buyer ordered the gun from TALO or direct from Ruger...
Upon checking the buyer ordered two...one for me and one for "stock"...they only got the one that went to me...

Was looking for a all-around general shooting load for the two Ruger GPs. Have a bunch of Berry's plated 165s and Speer Gold Dot HPs so decided to start there as I could not find my stash of 165 cast bullets...
With the Berry's bullet and 10 grains of AAC-7:
3"...950 4.2"...1040 6" Kimber...1130
200 grain Hard cast with 8.0 grains of Longshot:
3"...1050 4.2"...1070 6" Kimber...1185
Have loads with the 165s that are in the 1300 fps range when shot out of a 5" 1911 but would be less than pleasant in the GPs...
Next to find the cast HPs...

Have had several conversations with people at Ruger, KTP and TALO and the one thing that is remarkable is that this is the only WC 3" 10mm shipped from Ruger in a couple of years.
The rep at TALO said that usually they get only a small quantity of a Distributor Exclusive per shipment but this is unusual only getting ONE of something...

A guy on another forum just sold a four inch factory polished for 650. I would have bought another gun had I had the chance.
