Re: The 10 mm Round
I have the Glock 20, so I could say I had one.  When I shot it, it did surprise me how much I enjoyed it.  Look out Polar bears!

Re: The 10 mm Round
I have a Rock Island Armory Commander 1911 in 10mm and love it. I am using Underwood 200 Gr hollow points for self defense. I will have to look when I get home but I think they are rated at 1250 FPS and you can tell a difference when shooting them.

I love 10mm, I have a S&W 1006, Glock 20 and Glock 29 that is my EDC. I hand load so cost of Ammo is not an issue.

Re: The 10 mm Round
Had a Delta for a few years. I enjoyed the pistol but, I was offered a ridiculous amount of gelt for it, so ended my sojourn in 10mm.

						Re: The 10 mm Round
I'm not making any value judgements here as I've not had the pleasure of shooting a 10mm pistol. The 10 intrigued me very much a few years back. No doubt about it...it's a hard hitting round. But it's tooooo hard hitting round for my old tired hands. lol.
Here's an interesting article on the 10mm. round:

Re: The 10 mm Round
Appears to be a good round.
I'd buy/build one (1911) if I didn't already have a 460 Rowland.

actually, its not that bad. It requires a compensator and 24lb recoil spring, so that helps. a bit.
