    outrider58 what would you consider accuracy in terms of distance and shot grouping?

    This is my first entry into the 10mm world. I would hope for a 4" group @ 50 yds? I have killed quite a few deer with my 6" .44 mag. My longest shot on a deer was 56 yards. The gun had a cheap red dot on it at the time that didn't tolerate the recoil very well. Eventually, I took it off and hunted with iron sights after that.

    I hope to get the gun to the range this weekend, though I don't have appropriate ammo at the moment to test accuracy. My main goal will be to test function and to sight in the SRO.

    Does a full power 10mm kick more than a .45acp ? No duh ! , laws of physics .

    But that's not the relevant comparison . Instead , think of it as the equivalent of a .41magnum from a service sized semiauto pistol . It's a narrow niche , but one that I appreciate .

    Ironically for as much as I like 10mm , several times I have talked people out of them .

    I love the 10mm. I don’t think it feels much different than the 45ACP except in the wallet ;)
