10mm handguns video.

[Dean C.]

But that $1200 American made 1911 is a big pos. I'll take my RIA that eats everything vs a kimber that can't cycle anything....thank you very much. I like my firearms to actually work. Like my Glocks, CZs, and other foriegn firearms as well.
Even a HiPoint works better than that pos Kimber in the video

Edit to add I do love my Ruger SR1911 and it's American made. Sounds like this one wouldn't meet your standards either as it didn't cost $1500-3000. Goes bang everytime though.

For $1,200~ Scott could have gotten a Dan Wesson 10mm that would actually run. Again the 1911 is to me an American gun that should be made in America. Also correct I would have to spend more on the Ruger than it cost to get it to where I would actually be happy with it.

P320 10mm rumors

YES PLEASE!!!! I may have to hold off on an M&P and get a p320 carry if this is true....

I would love to see an HK USP 10mm.

I need talked out of a 10 mill. Not practical for me but I so want one. This thread doesn't help

10mm's are awesome. Imagine 357 magnum +P power With the ability to shoot 10-16 rounds in a semiautomatic. Capacity would depend on your handgun preference.

Nothing like having a hand cannon on your hip that can stop a bear. lol

I like 10mm as much as the next guy, but it's not a 357 +P. Its a good round, but it's never been better than a 357, and a 44 Mag would whoop it's butt. Depending on which load manual you go with, 10mm still falls short by 80-100fps (taking into account the 10" vs 5" barrel lengths. With 180gn loads out of both, the 357 is still more powerful. Capacity is the only reason for a semi auto. If you want to hunt with a handgun, get a wheelgun and do it right.

I use 800x and get around 1315 fps with 180gr in a 10mm 5" barrel. Notice that 357 is a 10" barrel. Reduce that velocity by around 125 fps for barrel length and it will be around 1275 fps in a 5" barrel. So it's pretty much the same velocity with the same length barrel.

Here is my 200gr WFNGC load

Here is my 155gr XTP load

Does it run reliably with factory 15 round springs with hot ammo or did you have to get +strength mag springs? I ask because I ran into an issue testing a new 200gr load and it turns out I had one of the original gen 3 glock 20 mags from at least a decade ago and the spring had gotten a touch too weak to keep up with the loading and I ended up having a slide lock issue that was resolved with a little fresher mag. It has me more conscious of mag extenders and spring life.

No issues as of yet running just about everything from 135gr to 200gr ammo. Pmc, Sellier & Beloit, Underwood, and Buffalo Bore

I feel like a 10mm thread is a good first post! I’ve owned a couple Glock 40s in 10mm, and they’re monsters. Long range pistol shooting with one is nuts, it badly smacks around small plates at 200m.

Watch when he gets to the brand new unfired Kimber 1911 10mm. 5:59 time on video.

So Kimber once again casts a shadow on the 1911. He should be slapped for even saying that crap.
Kimber. Go figure.

^ChurchMouse you are missed.^



Discussion about bear defense and you will see 10mm on the list.
454, 44 etc also of course. It's a good video.

I got to handle the FN 10mm, Sig P320 10mm, and Smith & Wesson M&P 2 10mm today.
Right now it's a toss up between Sig, and Smith for ergonomics. I need to get my hands on the Springfield XDME 10mm also.
However, the new Performance Center S&W 10mm is looking like it may get the call.
That depends on how the XDME 10mm feels.

Underwood 10mm Auto 155 grain JHP at 1500fps and 775 ft lbs of energy is more than a typical .357 Magnum 125 JHP.

I have 3 pistols in 10mm. The STI PERFECT 10 is a 6" barrel, don't like 200 gr so use 180gr XTP's. A S&W 1006 eats everything. A EAA Witness that eats anything. The STI can hold 21 rounds in the big mag. My brother has a Kimber that is very ammo sensitive. Most factory ammo will not work in it. I reload for it, loading max loads using 180gr Horady XTP's or Golden Sabors. The Kimber has a very tight chamber. It isn't worth sending to a gunsmith and investing money in. It gives a shotgun pattern emptying the mag at a pie plate.
