Yep, still trying to track down a pound of Blue Dot...but this winter storm is not going to make any powder hunting trips happen for at least a few more days!

Thanks Guys!

I ordered some Longshot, True Blue, and Zip off Brownells and just bit the Hazmat fee as none of those are found locally in my area.

Still hoping to track down a pound of Blue Dot, but I may try Bullseye since I have it on hand too.  Basically looking for the most accurate / tightest group load not necessarily lightest recoil (though that combo would be great!).  I use 3.7gr of titegroup for my 40 S&W powder puff and that's literally no recoil, decent grouping though not the best...but more than sufficient for Steel Challenge.

Hello,

New member here...long time reloader but first time loading 10MM.  I have been looking thru my books and also reading thru the threads on this site.  It sounds like a favorite load is 180gr XTP or HAP w/ 10.4gr of Blue Dot.  I cannot find Blue Dot powder locally (or even on Powder Valley, Midsouth, etc).  I have Accurate #9, which I used to run off a test batch last weekend.  12.0gr behind a 180gr plated RNFP.  It functioned fine out of my 1911 but the groups were not outstanding.  I normally use titegroup for 40 S&W powder puff loads for SCSA, but also have CFE Pistol, Unique, Sport Pistol, Bullseye, and Win 244 on hand.

I'd like to run the 180gr plated RNFP I have, but also have the 180gr XTP & HAP that I plan to use.  Looking for favorite pet loads for accuracy for bullseye.

I'm shooting both a Magnum Research 10MM Govt and a Glock 21SF w/ a Lone Wolf G20 barrel.

Any other powder and recipe suggestions greatly appreciated!
