10mm semi-auto handguns / G20 Recoil spring
May 29 2016 10:22:25 AM MDT
So, im looking to beef up my G20 so to speak.

I live in Alaska and my main sidearm for the forest is a Ruger 454 Casull with some 360grain Hardcasts. Definitely something i feel safe with.

My wife on the other hand has a Glock 20. Im looking to get some nice hardcast rounds for The Glock after i get a different barrel that would shoot hardcast correctly. What # recoil spring should i switch the OEM one with? Standard weight? or heavier to reduce the frame from being battered?

Thanks!

General Discussion / The future of 10mm

Is 10mm on the rise?

So...I've heard talk over the years about the 10mm a dying cartridge, better go with .40 S&W...(which i hate)...blah blah blah.

There have been alot more offerings as far as ammunition big ticket companies getting on the 10mm Train,
One being Sig Sauer and their P220 10mm, and The Glock 40 long slide.

What do you guys things? I see 10mm popularity growing.

Factory 10mm ammo / Re: Medium animal defense

Thanks all for the replies, and insight!

I understand 10mm isn't the premiere woods gun, I suppose i'll have to buy an Aftermarket glock barrel for them Hardcast.

Like i said I purchased it for my wife as shes familiar with the Glock manual of arms,
And i already have a 454 Casull with 360gr Underwood LWN-GC among other loads.

Again thank you for the replies.

Factory 10mm ammo / Medium animal defense
March 28 2016 06:33:53 AM MDT
Hello all,

I own a couple 10mm firearms. and a Multitude of 10mm ammo:

Initially i bought a Glock 20 for my wife to Supplement me and my 454 Casull Ruger for wood carry, as i live in Alaska.
I fell in love with the 10mm ever since. Now my question:

For woods defense against medium/large animals being Black bear, moose, wolves, etc...
Is a heavier bullet better than lighter? I know penetration is key, how about Round nose vs JHP?

Currently for the woods i have 200gr Corbon RNPN. and Maybe some Double tap 200 Nosler JHP
Ive also got alot of Underwood 180gr gold dots, Hornady, and some others.

So are heavier JHPs the best? or FMJ/Round nose better for penetration?
What do you use for woods carry?

Thanks
