Sometimes I miss Colt Delta Elite, reminded me of a 41 magnum pistol

I'm rather new to the 10mm club but so far I like the cartridge and it is pretty decent in my XDm Elite 4.5.

Yea, miss my Delta Elite also, so far I got the XDm Elite Compact and a S&W 610 revolver, just missed getting the Ronin 1911 last week but 2 hours…..lol

Nowhere near a .41, unless you cherry-pick the hottest 10mm load and the tamest .41.

Apples to apples, 10mm is the equal of .357 magnum.

I'm not sure about this writer, because the headline states 10 things as 11 are mentioned. On a side note Col. Cooper has a 100mm ? Need to watch the print. That 100mm (3.937") is the handgun of the 105 Howitzer brother I guess.

Maybe he needs more ejamacation.........lol

I had my Delta Elite way before the reduced 10mm rounds came out.
A 10mm 200 gr bullet at about 1200 fps is pretty close to the 41 Mag 210 gr at 1230 fps.

Muzzle energy is the number that you need to look at (ft/lbs).

And that’s what I meant by cherry picking; that’s a very hot 10mm; a hot 210gr .41 mag will hit 1500fps+.

Again—10mm is the equivalent of .357 mag.

Another thing about the story, I find 10mm range ammo VERY hard to find at every store I go to each week/month (only 1 retailer in last 2 years has had S&B or Magtech FMJ on occasion...kicks the same as any .40SW I've shot), but defense loads and Buffalo Bore is everywhere.

You mispelled it, it's ejam-i-cation

You'll never find 1 in stock as @10mmLife has all of them! @BET7 been trying his best to get 1 for his collection for decades.........................................maybe he does have 1 but not telling @10mmLife so no to get robbed

The Turkey's Opinion is a u-toober (he does not take any money or donations from gun or ammo companies) that has been testing the 10mm Yeet Cannon for a while now. Interesting findings...

Yea, the old Norma 10mm was kinda warm, shot good though

10mm vs 41 Mag (Updated: March 2023)

Both the 10mm and .41 mag in different ways have their abilities. They may differ in muzzle energies and weight, but they are ideal options for self-defense, tactical shooting, and hunting.

Having never held or fired a 10mm, I enjoyed the article. If it appeals to you, go for it.

Well here she is, a mighty 10mm in all it's glory. lol now what i'm gonna do with this i don't want to put a lot of money in one. for 175 bucks for a 10mm will do. this thing weighs a ton and is huge. but what i'm gonna do with it all that don't matter and no it ain't gonna be a trotline weight. lol but i'm up for some funny remarks so have at it. might even paint gangsta on the side of it.

The trigger ain't half bad though and the sights are decent and adjustable. but lawd have mercy it sho be ugly and heavy. now if'n it don't go off you can throw it at em. and if you hit em, that weight will knock em out cold. my first and only Hi point.

Pretty sure this is the only one out there as @10mmLife has the rest of them so i jumped on it.
