    Energy or Penetration

    I spent weeks reading for hours on SD in 10mm.
    Is your assailant going to present himself straight on and still, all 120lbs naked so you can simulate the TNoutdoors simtech shot.
    Hope he ain't a 260lb prison trained single minded, chemically motivated individual charging sideways do to the weapon he has stretch out towards you.

    I don't like the high speed lower weight. Not unless said assailant promises to stand still so I can hit a guaranteed soft spot.

        I had just ordered (2) boxes of underwood 135gr @ 1600 fps - I just emailed them and changed it to (4) boxes of 180gr @ 1300 fps lol. straight manstoppers.

          The UW 180gr Gold Dots (I think they call them Bonded HP now, I think maybe Speer got on them for calling them Gold Dots).

          These are labeled 1300fps, but you won't likely get 1300fps out of a G29. I get 1300fps out of my stock length G20 barrel, but they clock in at about 1260fps out of my G29SF. That by the way is more than you really need or in my mind optimal.

          I would suggest getting the special 180gr Delta Elite load (if they still make it with GD's). That should get you in at about 1200fps out of the G29, which is more than plenty for anything including shooting the bad guys through a car door. Recovery time will be better with these slightly lighter loads.

          Good luck, have fun, hope you never need those GD's.

            Yeah, but that's usually with a shot of Haldol, Ativan, and Benadryl. It takes a bit longer with an 21ga needle than with a Glock 29 too. Hehe.

              My vote is for Underwood of what a good 10mm load should be. There is no other ammo manufacturer that does full power target loads at 60 cents each. Start reloading if you're looking for hotter loads.

                Get at least one box of the 135 @ 1600 FPS. You will be impressed.

                Also, register an account with Underwood and Kevin will email special shipping offers from time to time. One such offer just expired on the 9th for free shipping on orders over $200 bucks...

                The problem is that Underwood Ammo is so popular that stock is running out all the time.

                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).

                  If you are looking for more power in cartridge firing approx. a 10 mm dia bullet, then is would be my choice (I know bullet dia is slightly larger on this one)

                  Heavy 41 Magnum Field Proven pistol and handgun ammo. Maximum firepower bullets. Best ammunition for pistols and handguns for sale. Buffalo Bore. Strictly big bore. Strictly Business.

                    Well yes.....a .41 magnum is better but it only runs in Revolvers....

                    If that were my choice (revolvers) I will probably choose a .44 magnum.

                    Both .41 and .44 being rimmed cartridges, will not run in a Auto Pistol.

                    I actually like Underwood better than Buffalo Bore. More value.
