Can G20 really eat a steady diet of full house 10mm loads?

    Best price on full power loads I have seen is around $0.62 per round at Underwood, plus shipping. Can anyone point me to better deal? LAX has some Sig Elite ammo for around $0.44, plus tax and shipping. https://www.laxammo.com/ammunition/1...e10mb1/32-1535 That is loaded hotter than most factory ammo and looks like an awesome deal, though I'm not sure it is exactly "full house." Any other ideas?
    As far as I can tell, all commercial 10mm is basically .40sw, with the exception of Underwood. Otherwise you're left rolling your own, which really aint so bad.

      SIG Elite seems to be close to full power. It isn't as powerful as Underwood. I think the 180 grain FMJ gets 2,500 fps from a G20. Underwwod lists 1,300 for their 180 grain from a G20.

      Be sure to ask your doctor if depression, rectal bleeding, and suicide are right for you.

        I have shot somewhere around 2500 9x25 Dillon loads through my G20 and about 700 10MM. It shows no sign that the gun itself is getting beat up. The recoil spring probably needs to be replaced and I had to pull the firing pin as some crud had worked its way in the channel and was causing lite strikes. Other than that good to go and the 9x25 has a harder recoil than 10MM.

          Yes on the 9X25. Really a zippy round. Moving out at 2,000 FPS in a laser like straight line, it's really fun as hell to shoot. That's why we mess with guns. FUN.!

          I'am working on a Glock 20SF with a 9 inch 9X25 Barrel. Looking for a scope now. Just. For. fun.


          Along side my 10MM longslide.



          A couple of years ago I built this 6 inch 9X25 with a red dot. Very accurate out to the limit of my bad eyes, 150 Yards.
          The idea was a handgun that would have the capability of a Carbine, red dot, 20 rounds (I own prebans) a fast round to reach out long distance. Fits in a smal backpack. ETc. Now I'm switching to a pistol scope with crosshairs. Trying to decide what to use with the 9 inch barrel...




          I know Kevin Underwood from the old days over at GlockTalk. Before he started his company. Really a man of integrity.

          Be well

          Fewer people are killed with all rifles each year (323 in 2011) than with shotguns (356), hammers and clubs (496), and hands and feet (728).

            When I ran mine over a chrono I was getting 1600 ish with 124G JHP's

            I like that red dot idea... Where did you get the mount? I use it as a carry gun though and that would make it tough... May need to get compact Glock 10mm as my carry and scope the G20...

              Bought the Mount at Glockmeister.com years ago. Never saw it offered again..

              It's aluminum.

              Double Tap was the ammo....... 95 grain.

              Yeah, a G29 is good.
