Best I've gotten in the last year was $17/box and that was a couple older boxes on a shelf of a gunshop. $20-22/box is typical. Hence why I only shoot it to cycle out my carry ammo every month or two.

I maybe missing something here guys, and if I am... my apologies but, I have a few 10mm 1911's. My Kimber is my favorite, You can get a Colt Delta, and I am sure there are others too... I know the Colt can get pricey but, I scored a minty used Kimber 10mm for about 800 just 6 months ago. Have these gotten harder to find?? Maybe a jump in price from the 7-800 you say this one will be? Since I have 3 10mm I have not looked at these for about a half year but, if things are still the same, this news isnt to exciting.

The other thing is... I can not find ammo for under 40.00 a box of 50. I am now reloading but, even casing for a 10 are totally ridiculous.

Anyway, just some thoughts...

I have the Colt DE, as well as a bunch of other 10mms. I'm just excited that another major manufacturer is making a stock 10mm.

I've not bought commercial ammo other than my carry ammo for years. In bulk the brass isn't any more expensive than .45acp and the reloading costs are exactly the same as loading for .40s&w.

Now if I only had some 10mm Silvertips.

Ha ha ha

Andrew at Profire Arms has 50rd boxes of 180gr 10mm JHP for 29.99. As of this afternoon he had 3 boxes left.

I was talking about Silvertips. Regular non-SD ammo is cheaper, and Andrew's price is an excellent one.

Hey my man, let me know if you come across anyone selling once shot 10mm brass... I have not been able to find it at 45acp brass prices.... would be nice though

what about smith 610 in 10mm

 

[Jeremiah]

why the love for silvertips?

and honestly I would probably buy this decades before I bought a kimber or a delta. This a vbob, and an STI perfect 10 are on my radar.... just need all the money.

 

[RMC]

Looks nice

 

[randygun]

can dealers order them?

While Winchester Silvertips are not the hottest load out there, for me at least, they have been the most consistent and reliable 10mm round I've shot. They feed and function well, seem to be fairly accurate and have plenty of energy.

Dont forget the way they open up in media! I dont shoot the 10mm, but I know the 185gr 45 ACP silvertips look like an exotic flower when I recover them...

 

[rthatchjr]

It's too bad CTD got the first shipment since I refuse to do business with them. I can wait for a better vendor to get them in stock.

Why?? am I missing something about them?

2008 election their prices trippled that night, they really set off the panic buying,. I will avoid them if at all possible.

I have a 610, it's a nice pistol!

 

[Colt556]

I have a 5" 610 and really like it. It balance better than the 6" and 6 1/2" guns so I sold them. I have a Ruger Blackhawk Buckeye Special with a 7 1/2" bbl that really balances well.

Looks like the 10mm will be $599.
