The pistol I shoot best is the Springfield XD Subcompact in 9mm. I have no idea why. I'm a BIG guy, 6'5" and hands that fit that frame. But still the sub is where I'm at.

Being a huge 10mm guy I'd love to see an XD in it.

 Welcome to the forum and the world of reloading.  Especially the 10 mm cartridge, it is my all-time favorite.

I load a lot of it and my powder of choice is blue dot, 9.6 grains  for the Hornady  XTP.

Would powder coated bullet be OK for a Glock pistol with factory barrel? I really like RMR bullets and have quite a few straight lead bullets, that I use in my non-Glock 10 mm pistols.

They also offer a powder coated version and I'm thinking about trying those.

Glock-40 and 20.

I'm loving the G40, probably my easiest shooting 10mm.

Yes the 43 pocket carries. Not as well as the 42, but close.

I just read about this last night. Any new 10MM is an exciting development to me.

This right here.

Nice picture. Have you shot the 40 yet?

Not yet, should be able to Wednesday.

And my wife wonders why I take her with me  to the gun store to buy powder. They have a 1 pound a day limit. So I buy one and she buys one.  Last week I was able to buy 2 pounds of blue dot that way,  leaving 1 pound for somebody else.

Gunsmithing / Bullet stuck

In the barrel. After years of reloading I had my first squib round. Primer went off and the bullet is stuck in the beginning of the barrel of my revolver, this is my new 10mm.

I've tried a brass cleaning rod down the muzzle and a hammer. Tried a wood dowel and a hammer. No luck.

Any suggestions?

General Discussion / Springfield Armory 10 mm?
April 03 2016 10:44:49 PM MDT
 Do any of you think  Springfield will ever make a pistol in 10 mm? I call them at least twice a year asking them to do so. The XD  line of pistols is my favorite. I own several and the pistol  I shoot best is their 9 mm subcompact.

I'm not a mechanical engineer but I think converting their 45 auto to 10 mm would not be a huge chore.
