I hunt with a 10mm have several (probably too many)

1.) Glock model 40 with open sights Zev trigger and 7? KKM barrel with ti firing pin and spring kit. Very accurate excellent velocities shoots anything I feed it.

2.) Glock model 20 with new LW 9? barrel LW long slide setup with a RMR and a Zev after market trigger and Ti firing pin and spring kit. Accurate great velocities and loves 165-180 grain bullets.

3.) Remington R1 6? 1911 very accurate better than the much more expensive Springfield long slide I have. Open sights easy to shoot easy to carry.

4.) Hunter model Sig Sauer great gun heavy accurate too short to legally use here but great well built gun open sites shoots anything I feed it the mags are short so loading you have to load close to the case mouth taper.

5.) Springfield long slide Operator this gun so far is disappointment to me but I am going to put an RMR see if it helps with accuracy.

6.) S&W revolver 4? accurate great handgun fantastic single action and double action trigger will shoot just about anything I feed it. Although recoil with heavier bullets can be tough on the shooter.

7.) Ruger GP100 defensive carry handgun boot grips and open sights. Accurate little revolver much prefers lighter weight bullets and is easier to handle with said bullets. I don?t use this for hunting but carry it allot.

8.) TC MGM 18? barrel for my contender great little carbine and 100 yard deer gun extremely accurate easy to carry and will take deer not issue shooting anything you feed it.

9.) Kriss Vector carbine. FUN great gun not easy to lug around hunting but it works Ultradot mounted it is accurate and consistent.

10.) HiPoint well it shoots day in and day out I use this burn up ,is mammoth not very accurate not fun to shoot really not much good to say about it.

11.) Reader custom Texas Ranger made from RI Arsenal don?t shoot this ,icy it?s ok it?s reliable it is not a hunting gun and too heavy for carry really so it sits mostly in the safe. Paid too much for it and I am not big Reeder fan so we will leave it at that.

12.) Colt Delta 1911 this is great gun easy to carry very accurate and reliable I want to add an aftermarket barrel to it to make it 6? for hunting. Of the 1911 I have this and R1 are the most accurate.

Within 50 yards the 10 is really good hunting handgun yes you can stretch it out if someone said here is a 44 and a 10 I would choose the 44 all day every day. Even being a 10mm fan boy. But I like my 10mm just feel it?s important to keep the velocity up and distance down. I have good success with XTP and Lehigh defense bullets in taking deer. Cast is OK but not as good as the 140-180 grain bullets at higher velocities.
