With the government flexing it's muscle I thought what the heck better buy while I can. This gun is complete with all extra grip panels and paperwork. I bet it will be real mice but will let you all know tomorrow when I can shoot it!!!!  Craig

Congratulations on the HS.

As for the government, they have made themselves into a mockery for quite some time now and are becoming less relevant daily due to not only their actions, but also to include their absence.

The only authority that they have, is that in which you give them.

This post checked by independent fact checkers, and they're all pissed off about it.

Nice job Craig, you should really enjoy it. If it?s anything like my XDm 3.8 compact 9, it should be very reliable

OK shot the new to me Springfield XDM 10mm today and it was fun. The recoil was not as bad as I thought it would be even compaired to my all steel Kimber and Witness. A little turn to the left is all. The site was perfect so didn't have to adjust anything. I was shooting 200g blue bullets with 12.5 AA9 nice 10mm load. I am out of the 200g so will load some  155g as I have some. I do have like 60 or so 200g left to shoot and will shoot more of those tomorrow but I may load some 155 to try. I also have some Power Pistol 200g to try also. We are having fun now.  Craig

Shot the 10mm again today and it is sweet!! I was using the Power Pistol loads and they were as good as the AA9 loads. I also found some other 10mm rounds that I shot with the others and all were fine. I just loaded 25 to replace the one's I shot today but I did find like 300 in storage. I do like the AA9 powder as I don't have anything else to load with it. I do use it with 357 rounds for the Desert Eagle. I still love the fact that the Desert Eagle owners manual for it says to use AA9 if you are reloading rounds for it. Shooting the Springfield today I put a bunch of rounds in the bullseye black!!! Craig

BTW I found a small primer piece of brass for 10mm that I reloaded so will try it tomorrow. I do think I have a box of these somewhere.

Hey Ken I have never used it so don't have any!!! Craig

If you are able to find any, it would be worth your time. It meters well, and makes for some very accurate loads, not to mention its flash suppression capabilities

Haven't been shooting the XDM 10 much in the past few days as I have been sick but better now. I just loaded a few 155g FMJ flat top with 9.5g Power Pistol and we will see tomorrow. I did find the small primer empty mixed in with the other brass so it must have worked OK but who really cares. Ha Ha I guess I loaded about 36 or so but am out of brass unless I really look around. Need to do some 38 special for a guy so will do those next. We are having fun now as always.   Craig

Shot the 10mm Springfield today with some of the 155g FMJ at 7.5 Power Pistol and boy what a nice surprise!!! Smooth as glass and a nice recoil and twist to the left. It's the niceset10mm round I have done so far.   Craig
