Federal all-copper 180 gr. load

[FMS1890]

Cabela's is listing Federal Premium Vital-Shok Barnes Expander Lead-Free 10mm ammunition with a 180 gr. solid copper bullet.  Does anyone know anything about it?  Federal doesn't seem to be listing it.  https://www.cabelas.com/product/Federal-Premium-Vital-Shok-Barnes-Expander-Lead-Free-Handgun-Ammunition/731953.uts?slotId=0

Well Barnes doesn't show a 180 grain offering TAC-XP or XPB line for 0.400" / 10mm.  A 18o grain would be quite long considering the  TAX-XP 155 grain is 0.732" long.

Barnes shows the 125 gr / 140 gr / 155 in the TAC XP lineup.

Think this one is a mislabeled.  It's their bonded offering, not Barnes bullet I'll bet.
As usual, Shadow is right....  180gr Barnes copper projectile would eat up too much case room. 

If you look at the bullet type discription for the 10mm in Cabelas link you'll see "TBJSP"...
I'll wager that stands for: Trophy Bonded Jacketed Soft Point.

Rojo27, that is exactly what I was thing that it would be the Trophy Bonded Jacketed Soft Point.

I am wondering whether this may be a new addition to Federal's line of Barnes Expander hunting ammunition, with Cabela's initially selling it before it is cataloged, the way they did with Speer's 200 gr. Gold Dot load.  The price is quite a bit higher than the list price for the Trophy Bonded load, and more in line with the other Barnes Expander ammunition.  Maybe the TBJSP is a mistake.
