10mm anyone

Anyone else reload 10mm around here?

I'm mainly interested if anyone has used the Winchester component .40S&W 180gr JHP bullets in the 10mm.

10mmdoes nothing .45 ACP cant do, for less cost,if you just load the .45 properly. .45 Super cases are ZERO longer or thicker than good .45 ACP cases. So if your .45 has a fully supported barrel, and you load it right, you can have the same level of power on tap, and your gun, ammo, mags,components all cost less than they would if you went with the 10mm, and you can get much less expensive "remanufactured" ammo that's a lot easier onthe gun and on you, in .45. You also don't have to swap out the ejector when switching from .45 to .22 lr. You will if you start with a 10mm,with the exception of "one fits all" Spld ejectors.
The 10mm is an interesting cartridge. Wonder if anyone has a Delta Elite.

I've got a Delta and yes, I load for it. I don't have the data here but I'll get it and post it tomorrow. I'll warn you though, much of the data I have is original load spec data not SAAMI. Use at your own risk.

I've owned several Delta's and have used one of them in a defensive shooting. Years ago, someone had the perfect tag line for the 10mm... The next best thing to a thermonuclear device.

I already SAID all there is to be said about the 10mm, and nothing any lying <font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font> says is going to change it, either.
The 10mm is a very interesting round.

then shut up and let the grownups talk.

Nobody CARES what you have to say. That's what's so funny. You harp about how many posts you make, but none of them matter to anyone but you.

This thread is about the 10mm, not about GK.

:devil:
That's funny as there's no way he could have had any experience with the 10mm without violating his parole.~>;-)
You know;the main use I see for a service size .40 is the .357 option.Who here knows much about the the bottlenecked 10mm to (....the 9X25mm Dillon.I dimly recall it as a "new thing"around the same time that the 9x23(kind of a rimless.38Super/Largo +type thing).Might be worth loading for 10mm just to be able to do a swap barrel conversion.Maybe a Glock20 or some other type of non1911 type lockwork,or maybe a NCG gas operted conversion on a 1911 in 10mm.Just letting my mind wander...
