The Official INGO 10mm Thread

Most .40 S&W once fired brass can be had from Free to $.02 a case..Top that case with a 175-180gr. Powder Coated cast bullet, with a GOOD shot of BlueDot powder, and you can have some strong loads VERY cheap..

Where you get your powder? lol

I never tried shooting .40 out of my last G20sf but will give it a shot this time around. I hate shooting 10mm at indoor ranges where I tend to lose most of the brass. Shooting .40 in those situations could let that gun get shot a whole bunch more.

This is true. For me at least. I know that when I shoot 10mm, I spend more time seeking the cases than I do shooting the gun. I've wasted 10 minutes poking in the weeds for that last couple of cases that I just know are there somewhere. Never did that with 9mm or .40.

I have a friend who is an RO in Alaska. We occasionally trade unusual brass. I send him .38 super and .45gap and the like I get from my source and he sends me 10mm. Now that I have a few thousand stashed I no longer scrounge as hard. Of course I mostly shoot on my own range so I will find it eventually.

Do you get smiles with your G20? I've heard of that with 40 S&W Glocks, but not the G20/G29. I've never seen that in either of mine, and I have fed them some pretty stout loads, but understand there may be differences from pistol to pistol.

AllenM has my G20, at least part of it. Milling the slide for a vortex Venom red dot.
If you are a reloaded check your brass carefully when fired from a glock, look for the "smiley". I went with a storm lake barrel and have had zero issues with it.

I honestly don't remember ever shooting my G20 with the factory barrel in it. I traded for it a while ago and it came with a Storm Lake barrel that has very good chamber support. I had a G29 that was worse than any 40 S&W I've ever seen. I put a Wolf barrel in it and it was better but , still bulged, so I sold it to someone who doesn't reload, or even shoot for that matter. I have yet to shoot the G40 I picked up this week, I haven't heard too much negative on them. If it bulges brass, and I like the gun I will go with a Storm Lake barrel.

CM, that's about how much your monthly AllenM payments are....

Good thoughts here...

Here's the thing..Pick up a 10MM to .40 S&W conversion barrel..I do NOT recommend shooting .40 S&W cases in a 10MM chamber..although I have heard of it done..Could be hard on your extractor, due to the fact that the extractor is the only thing that holds a .40 S&W case tight to a 10MM slide.
Get the .40 barrel that will headspace correctly the S&W case to your 10MM weapon.
Alliant shows a 180gr. projectile @ a little over 1K fps with a good load of BlueDot...Not a 10MM load, but not a light load either..Bill.

Looked at those before. How do you like it. Its a sharp looking firearm.

 

[churchmouse]

OK. The non-release of the Springer 10mm has me sitting down with AllenM and doing another custom 10mm Commander possibly a Bob tail but not sure yet.

The sources I use can not get them yet.
No biggies. I will put some money on top of the Springer price and get a custom.
I would dump $500 + in the Springer anyway so a bit more and I get a serious Hotrod.

Can I help you spend your money? I wish I could afford another custom right now. I want a long slide, or to put a comp on the Delta Elite.
Have they done the PowerBall drawing yet? Let me check my numbers.

Sounds like good advice. Thanks.

I am sitting down with AllenM this week. He has some really slick ideas.
I am all excited and everything........

I had 2 pieces unexpectedly find new homes with a 3rd in the works. I will fund the custom from these revenues.

 

[churchmouse]

OK. The initial plans are laid down. New we get some parts coming our way.
I am excited.
