It appears that it does fit a Ruger GP100, so it should fit a DW 357 just fine.

Thanks for the confirmation.  Just ordered one so we'll see how it goes.

Sight arrived today and fitted.  Makes a huge difference.  Can't wait till midweek to get to the range and try it out for real.  Many thanks for your assistance and knowledge.  Just have to sort out (obtain) a barrel wrench for the 32H&R and get it going again now.

How is the height of the sight compared to the original, does it differ any ?

If you are planning to do a lot of short distance shooting (7-15 yards) you will likely need to adjust the sight down farther than the OEM sight. You may even find that you need a taller front sight in order to match the POI and POA. longer distances should not be a problem. This is because the front sight on the Ruger is typically taller than the DW.
