Black Hills Ammunition doesn't offer a 10mm load.

Has anyone ever contacted them?

They do every so often. I spoke with them long ago and it was 1150 or so for a 180.

Oh okay. Thanks.

I figured they would be the type of company to offer a fast 155.

I like Parasteve's reponse.  ;D

I would think that a good quality 155 grain hollowpoint at a solid 1300+ fps would be nice, if they don't want to offer full power stuff.

Or how about a 200 grain Gold Dot at 1150? That is way below max but still a nice load.

I think Black Hills Ammo is catering to Military (special ammo) and law enforcement contracts...
When Black Hills made there run of 10mm it was during the time frame, that VLTOR was set to produce the Bren Ten copy, that never happened.  I don't know if they actually used this box that they showed back then... ???

 Ammo and pistol match. Vaporware!

I hear ya!  There were many (including myself) who had their hopes of the VLTOR Bren Tens actually being produced.  I never saw the ammo which was shown in those boxes, with the Black Hill's name on them for sale anywhere... ::)
