Title: 10mm American Eagle 180gr FMJ report

Hi
Got a chance to look at this ammo last weekend. It's just .40 ammo in a longer case, but it's cheap and the brass is good.

I can attest to the brass being good.  I reloaded a box of these with a warm load of LongShot (1260 fps 180gr bullet) and the brass was in much better condition than new Starline cases loaded with the same recipe.

My only problem with them is the only place I could find them for sale sold them at $40 per box of 50.

My gun run range had them for about $28 / box also. A little on the expensive side but for some casual shooting once in a while it wasn't too bad. As mentioned they are loaded light, but functioned great in my 20SF!

I should clarify a little bit.  There aren't any stores within 30 miles of me that sell 10mm except for the one.  It's a small shop and the owner knows it, so he can get by with jacking the price up.  Plus, he mostly deals in reloading supplies and sell most of those for less than you can order online.
