Cool, another nut  tracking 10mm data (it's a bit of a hobby of mine)

You might want to look here (not my work): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gex6ItGeWQunVZR9B14mseacyEGoreRRrBEXZavfciM/htmlview#


With nothing empirical backing this up: Woods carry = 200gr hardcast pushed hard (safely). Two legged = 155gr @ velocity the bullet was designed to operate at.

Personally I'd choose a 9 for 'in town', and something a bit more robust for 'out of town'. But's that's just me

Good stuff...thank you!

Thank you for the hard work. Now to watch them all and "like" each one.
I think we need to pick a video and everyone watch it a few times. Get it bumped up in the youtube tracking.

Love it to the extreme! This lets me know how well an antipersonnel load penetrates without striking bone. It is as I have suspected all along, the 175-180 grain bullets are a great "compromise" of penetration/expansion for SD/Police work. I like it!

I still think that the military would benefit by going with a double stack 10mm, 5"-5.5" barrel (the longer being threaded for supression) shooting a 200 grain FMJ at "full-tilt" levels. (This allows for collateral damage behind the primary target). The 10mm would not only work well in "the field" but coud be used for clandestine "wet work".

Thanks for taking the time to pull all this together. This very useful data that I'll refer to again and again. Ive thought about the 10mm off and on through the years and the current potus pushed me over the edge a few years ago. I have not loaded or shot much  but I hope to be able to get to the loading bench soon to fix both of those problems. Thanks again!
