A REAL 10mm starts at 200/1200 fps

Many factory loads are actually .40 S&W level in a 10 case. Man I'd be miffed to pay premium price and get a 175-200 gr. bullet at 1000 fps. But ignorance is bliss if you don't actually know about it. Blasted chronographs!

I have customized my G21 to shoot 10mm from it's 6" barrel. Using some special slick cast bullets I've shot 230 gr. to 1200 (Longshot rules in 10), the equal of the hot hunting ammo. Limited use for sure. I prefer the 200/1300 lighter cast load. With 15 in the mag that should do. I have a 10mm revolver too that loses no velocity compared to the auto, but it has a 6" and if you count the cylinder that's 8". Maybe that is it?

Most of my 10 shooting is in a 6" and with special slick cast bullets and selected powders. A loader can really get some bark from a custom 10.
