They show using Nickel plated JAG brass. That's a first!

I ordered the 9mm and 10mm all coppers. They had a two box minimum on the frangibles... I will wait for those to show up on the shelf ;D
I have some 115gr 0.355" frangibles that I haven't had the opportunity to test with yet! They are on the long side for their weights. I was going to test in the 9x25Dillon cartridges and mabe 357Sig
What is so special about this ammo?

I am skeptical because a lot of times frangible bullets breaks off as they leave the magazine and hit the feed-ramp.

It's new. Anything new in 10mm is great! That means more makers are offering 10mm with the usual suspects. Outside of that... possibly a different all copper bullet 155gr.
The price is right ion the frangibles. Might make a nice pest load. I am looking forward to seeing how they test out.

Couldn't agree more! Any attention is a welcome boon to the 10mm market; the more demand there is, the more supply should (theoretically) increase to meet it which means more options, better availability and better pricing for everyone. It's interesting to note that their initial offering is something so unique versus the typical FMJ and JHP offerings.
When that Sig ammo hits the Cabela's shelves, that might be my best ammo option. No tax, free shipping (walk-in) and pick it right up. I'm kind of hoping one day the 10mm is on the Walmart shelves too :o

Oh man, that will be the day! I would actually step foot in a Walmart if that day ever comes :)) I would think that it's a pretty good possibility though, especially with Sig's fairly sizable presence in Walmart already.
