Title: Great day at the range
Post by: Sean Thornton on October 11 2015 01:37:37 PM MDT
I haven't been out for a while and felt it was 10mm time. I got the Kimber Target II and the S&W 1006 out and loaded the 5 mags I have for each. The weather was fantastic and so was the shooting. After firing the first 5 mags for each I reloaded them again and for a third time. My new brass catcher on the tripod even work great. The Kimber throws the brass 30 feet or more so the brass catcher was fantastic. I recycled Gatoraid bottles filled with water as targets then started on the walnuts and even a golf ball.

Now time to reload another 500 rounds or so. 10 grains of Blue Dot and a 180 hard cast bullet this time and even a few 180 Hornady XTP rounds. Hopefully in the next month or two I can get the Sig P220 in 10mm.

Most of my latest range trips I have just been having WAY too much fun with my Mechtech CCU in 10mm. I use my Dan Wesson as the lower and I have an instant 10mm Carbine. I am going through my 10mm reloads at an unbelievable rate. This gun is just TOO much fun! If I could only find like a 30 round magazine for it!

You could try an extended .45 auto mag. I have used them in my Kimber at times.
