Yep. 10mm is gaining a little popularity too since it's a decent carry option that can be loaded hot enough for bear and bigfoot defense. If I go to the store right now I'll usually only find the pussified stuff that's nothing like original 10mm ammo. It's basically .40 with a fatter grip that I donyt like. Hopefully that's changing.

Like grundle I'm all about the hot loads.

I buy cheap shit for plinking, but Buffalo Bore for real potential bear work.

Yeah that's the stuff. Underwood and double tap have some good rounds too. It's just bullshit that you have to pay $1+ per round to get real 10mm in all its glory, and the practice ammo available is nothing like what you're going to carry.

Never shot 10mm. How does full power 10mm compare to .40 from a "snappiness" standpoint?

Honestly they feel about the same to me, at least within a narrow range and depending on ammo. The biggest thing for me is the grip size with double stack magazines which makes .40 a little more comfortable for me.

My .40 carry ammo are 165 grain Winchester Ranger T, which is actually a pretty hot round (~500 ft/lb) with a really mild, push like recoil. It's not snappy like most .40 range ammo that's 100+ fps slower. I actually find the range ammo more fun.
