My 10 MM Handloads (Nuclear!)

THESE LOADS WERE CREATED UNDER CONTROLLED CONDITIONS.

DO NOT ASSUME THEY WILL NOT BE OVER PRESSURE IN YOUR GUN!

ALWAYS REDUCE THE LOAD BY 15% AND WORK UP IN YOUR GUN!

I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE LOADS OR ANY  TYPO ERRORS!

ONLY YOU CAN TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR LOADS!

LOADS WITH AN * ARE OVER BOOK MAX OR ARE NOT LISTED!

MOST LOADS ARE BOOK MAX, SOME ARE OVER!

NO OVER PRESSURE SIGNS WERE NOTED IN MY GLOCK G20.

MY S&W 1006 WILL SHOW SOME OVER PRESSURE SIGNS WITH THE LISTED LOADS.

USE WITH CAUTION!

All loads were shot out of my G20 with a Glock 6" barrel, and 22 # recoil spring.

If you are going to load your 10 MM hot, buy a heavy recoil spring!

My stock G20 barrel gives me about 100 fps less velocity.

My S&W 1006 will give about 50 FPS less in velocity.

All loads were using CCI 350 Large Pistol Magnum Primers, and using new brass.

Do not use with used brass!

Most loads were listed in Lee's Modern Reloading. Please use a good manual as a guide.

I know that most reloading manuals do not list such high loads.

Pressure signs of even the hottest load listed are less the other powders(at max) giving lower velocities!

These loads were listed by IMR and by Lee. Some are max, or self- worked up loads.

800-X stands for IMR Hi-Skor 800-X.  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO CHECK THESE WITH
