10mm auto powerrecommendations

[ARlife4me]

Mark me down for another team blue dot. It has worked well in my Glock 20 factory barrel. Looking to up grade barrels and start shooting some hand cast lead.

IF you are going to shoot anything other than copper (exterior) than glock factory barrels (polygonal) is not recommended. Just in case you might not know?

Any of you load 10mm for a 8" barrel?

Looking to load 180s and pass them through my CMMG's 8" barrel.

Ya know, for a supposedly dead cartridge it seems like every one of us loads for it.... This is a fairly knowledgeable bunch though..... Remember guys, esp newbies if you want to try and play .41Mag with a 10 you will need a fully supported barrel and you will have to play with heavy springs. In a 1911 it helps to have a 6" heavy slide, 22-24# recoil spring and a stronger mainspring also to lower slide velocity. There are also some other little tricks that ****** timing. I will not print the load but my 6" 1911 is dangerously close to a .41. This is also getting up there with the very limit of what any sane person should attempt with a 1911, and they better understand what they are doing. fun though...
Without a properly modified and tuned pistol do not ever exceed a book load. 10MM, 38Super, and .45 I would wager are the most Hot Rodded pistol cartridges there are. Doing so without knowing exactly what you are doing is a great way to get a face full of slide or other parts. even if you know what you are doing I doubt is it is really safe since you are exceeding the design limits of the platform.

This is from a slightly over charged 45 caliber a Glock 21.I alway double check each one now.I rose protocol because my wife and dog distracted me.I shut the door and don't answer phone calls while reloading now.

Caution, Blue Dot bridges in powder measures, weigh every charge.

I found a couple pounds of 800x at a LGS about a year ago. I am going to try some of it one day in my G40.

I picked up 4lbs of VV 3N 38 powder. Haven't reloaded anything yet. Ballistics on it are impressive in the 10…

What kid of velocity are you looking at out of the 10mm with it? What grain bullet?

AA9 the best for Full Power loads with CCI 350 primers and 200/220 in 10mm. Only problem can't find any !

I tend to see No 9 often, I have at least a pound of it on my shelf too.

I loaded some 10mm with 150 gr Nosler How Point with Alliant Power Pistol powder and had good accuracy.
Alliant website has load data for the bullet of your choice.
Powder Valley had some A#9 instock a couple of days ago.
I always keep a pound or 2 or 3 as it is a go to powder also for 40 cal and 10 mm.I just wanted to try a different powder to see if it shoots any better than A#9.

13.0 with 200 XTP with CCI 350 most excellent
It's hard to get powder up to Alaska !
