Reeder Custom Guns - Any body ever shoot the 40 Super?

I think it’s similar. Making ammo from 45 Acp brass is easy as sizing it. Just acquired it so I haven’t put it thru a chronograph yet to see how it compares with a 10mm. Currently having feeding problems with mine, I think I’ll just grind off a little metal with my dremel, can always add some more JB weld if I grind off too much.

Yes I’m yanking you’re chain Sir Boggs

and shoulder on the .45 Super case. Actually it's obsolete. O'd JD way back tried the .41 Avenger (a true .410" on the .45 ACP loaded hot) made more sense to me but a huge flop. Ditto the .41 Action Express that also was .410" on a rebated 9mm rim, straight wall, great idea but flopped.

I had a .400 Corbon (on the std. ACP case)and being conservative you can mimic 10mm ballistics in a 1911 with less magazine capacity. A bit of a trick to get to run right. I tried to hot it up more and broke a barrel locking link, scared me. I'm not a fan of hotting up the 1911 platform too much, but that's me. Some bottle-neck pistol rounds headspace on the case mouth, not the shoulder, and that's the trick.

Three people in history I believe...

I do

I think the 10mm already solved this need!

10mm vs 40 Super

I may be the 5th soon

Wish I could find a barrel for my Ruger

Find a 40 S&W barrel

I will have my 40 super at HHC.

Good deal, hoping to come get a meat hog or 2

10mm longslide, 200gr @ 1300fps & close enough for me

4 counting Alcorn

I have a barrel for a 400 Cor-Bon

I think it is a modified .400 CB with different neck
