Managed to snag one from Sportman's. Signed up for their notification. Pretty good deal with the free magazine promo.

Great video, Thanks!

Hope to have mine by the end of the mth but would someone PLEASE do a review with real 10mm ammo. All reviews I have watched are with weak 10mm

Thanks

HPR in that video is true 10mm.

I'm surprised there hasn't been more push back on the 10k round test of 40 S&W hyrdoshok ammo. Literally the difference in specs between 40SW and the 10MM hydroshok is a whole 30fps. Thats a shame for a supposed durability test.

When he picked up the federal box I thought he was gonna run the 180 gr soft point trophy bonded which would have been a SOLID reliability test. But alas no, it was not meant to be.

It's worse than that.  The 40 S&W ammo was slower, but was tested from a 1" shorter barrel.  So, the 40 Hydroshok is actually loaded hotter than the 10mm.

Based on my experience with my XD 9mm and the stuff I put through it over the years... you won't break the pistol with what you can throw at it without going way over any kind of acceptable nuclear load. If you really want to just blast with it, add a recoil reducing guide-rod and enjoy!

Damn... throwback to 6 years ago shooting Underwood's smoker 115's

Don't play with your pistols in the dirt 

Lol that doesn't work with the fine Texas red dirt and my hunting style.

Thank you 🙏

posted the below on another threat in case ya missed, just keeping my promise



OK gang, I finally got to the range with my new xdm-10 4.5 in barrel. I shot several types of amMO 10-15 rounds of each listed below
180g Underwood gdhp-nice recoil,quick shots, one of my fave
175g Silvertips-sweet shooting,accurate, my urban carry load
155g Corbon jhp,light recoil,easy shooting,not super accurate.
180g Hornady critical defense, light shooting,one hole
180g Federal trophy match, Stout load with recoil, accurate,nice
180g sig performance fmj, also stout recoil
180g xtp,home rolled, 9.2 longshot, nice shooter,accurate
200g xtp,home rolled, 8.6g longshot, stout,nice
Forgot the sig vcrown and the 190g fbi load at home but I think I had a pretty good med-full power load representation. I didn't however have some weak stuff like armscorp ,s&b, or blazer. All the rounds went through with out a hitch, flawless. Just a light cleaning and oiling pre-range. Shoots nice even with the stout loads and second shots are easy. And if I did my part, most would tear out the center at 21ft (I know, I'm gonna stretch her out next week)..
I've ordered sights,night fision, because I hate those crappy tru-glows. Also stripped the slide completely and dropping it off for ceracote  tomorrow.  Overall,  I'm very pleased with the gun and after ceracote,will be getting a new holster and it will be a frequent carry gun....maybe edc...good gun, good fun what else ya need.

just got back from my initial range time.

175gr silvertips 12 shots at 10yds 7 bulls, 3 nearly bulls 2 fliers less than an inch from bull

180gr berry plated 1.26 oal over 9.7gr bluedot wlp primer did very well too

zero malfunctions and nicely accurate when i did my part out to 25yds.

I thing SA missed the boat when they did not make these new guns optic ready!

frank..

guy at the lgs said the same thing, he wanted them kinda like the glock mos style. i don't like optics on handguns but the mos feature on my g40 doesn't bother me.
