It'd be interesting to see the 10mm loaded hot with that projectile..... He mentioned in the last vid the 10mm was not hot like the .357Sig was loaded.... Either one would efficiently administer an effect attitude adjustment....

Still think a coach gun loaded with #1 Buck would be more impressive... #1 Buck is .30cal/7.62mm
Hell yeuh, Rusty....

#1 Buck 12-16 .30cal pellets screaming downrange.... Double that letting both barrels rip...
Shit fire and save the matches, mang....

My thoughts exactly. The 10 mm loads I load are considerably hotter than than factory loads in those vids you posted. There is no way the 10 mm loaded properly hot can lose to a .357 Sig in energy.

A little hard to conceal, no?

A friend of mine tried to shoot a coach gun with one hand, and
ripped the webbing next to his thumb. Very small for a shotgun,
but, it's still a shotgun!

At PBR a coach gun loaded with birdshot would make two big ass holes.... At PBR, the shot either hasn't left the shot cup or may still be in the shot cup.... Either is bad...real bad on the receiving end.... More like getting hit with a slug... A big mess rather than a 'hole'...

Big bro wanted to pattern his shotgun on his barn door decades back... I told him to back his ass up...but noooooo... I know what I am doing....this is far enough back.... blah yadda blah.... Dumbass blew a fist size hole through the door.....

Yep... Can't beat it for home defense though where concealment is no issue...

Carry, my old Beretta 92FS with K's of rounds through it and grooved rubber rap for grips is my goto... With hot ass defense hollow points, it'll adjust attitudes very well.... Plus it is unbelievable accurate (O-ringed barrel), every contact surface micromeshed.... I love a Beretta open top.... Easiest to clear on the planet.... Mine's never jammed but if it did, it would be more of a slap on the top to clear.

Sometimes the old Para Ord (orig from Canada) P14 LTD SS dbl stack .45ACP... gets to ride... Deadly accurate also...

On occasion when it is warmer (thinner clothes) I'll grab the 84FS .380 dbl stack with rubber wraps in the Galco.....Hot ass hollow points in it also.... At PBR, caliber doesn't much matter....

Looks like ya should wear a suit to the range with that thing. Too formal looking. :)

Well, some match/race guns are kinda flashy.... I don't care... My shiny sides SS Para Ord attracts attention...as does the Glock 24C (damn ray gun).... I don't care... I buy em to shoot.....

Yeah, competition guns attract attention... Just is... Steve's wussy .22LR is funny looking....drive toothpicks but still funny looking... Kinda ghey... :laugh2:

P14LTD, Glock 24C (a bud called it a ray gun)
My old 92FS looks like old service issue but it ain't... Barrel blue almost gone and the nuclear proof Bruneton or whatever it is, is gone in spots, all from being shot/handled so much... Still a tack driver...

I just don't care what they look like to anyone else..... If I like how it prints, I don't much care.... Just like guitars....

Flash or no flash, I just don't care.


Hell, if I ran across a Yugo that hasn't exploded, fallen completely apart, rusted away, that actually survived that bullshit cash for klunkers that did away with a lot of good used cars because of the "I want my MUNNNAAAAY" mentality folks, I'd be sorely tempted to buy it, have it stripped and every hidden interior metal surface heavy Rhino'd and foam insulated...repainted.... Ford drivetrain...

That would be fun.... I'd get a tag that says 'GFY 001'....

I'm a long-time handloader. I'd definitely get dies and reload for that.

What are some of my pistol choices?

The few guys I've known that tried loading for .357 Sig all stopped. They said it was too big a pain in the butt due to the bottleneck design. I don't know, because I've never tried.

It is a loud, costly and effective cartridge. That much I do know.

I wouldn't think so, but most factory 10mm is loaded closer to .40 cal than not.

Glocktalk has a subforum or two dedicated just to the 10mm. If I recall correctly, a gentleman was getting 1600 fps with a handloaded 135 gr. bullet out of his Glock 29 10mm.
