Gun talk or something beside the stupid title i gave it

Only issue with the 180gr JHP's out of a 10mm carbine would be lack of penetration (giggity) because of a higher than optimal impact speed. Most 40/10mm jhp's are built for 40sw pistol impact velocities on soft 2-legged critters. At 50yds, they may have slowed down enough to work fine, especially if'n they're not loaded to max 10mm velocities however.

For a hunting JHP, I like the 200gr Hornady XTP's. I'm with my brother Randy here however. The 200gr and 220gr cast truncated flat points are my go to for hunting with a 10mm. I like the 200gr Underwood, Buffalo Bore, HSM, and Grizzly hardcast 10mm loadings, especially with bear and elk being possibilities here.


Much of these loadings and component bullets are available from Midway and others as well as factory direct.

I had been looking at that balistics by the inch site. Disapointed I couldnt get a 10mm ar based delayed blowback with a longer barrel. 13" looked like the sweet spot.
I was leaning towards heavier bullet to maybe stay subsonic and stiil have enough for a clean kill. I'll check out them links n stuff later when i gots time

It'd be pricey, but one could be made to your specs.

Does Rock Island actually make theirs?

I’ve read that the Phillipines made 1911s are generally very good. They’ve been producing them nearly as long as we have in the US.

From what I've heard armscor is the manufacturer and they are marketed as Rock island
But I have no idea how many phillipine 1911 company's make them or rebrand them
I've seen Charles Daly/metro arms/ati/sti also had a line that was final hand fit and finished at sti and a few competitive shooters ran them nice pistols very accurate I never could find one to buy.
The nicest one's I've seen are the cimmaron very nicely fit and finished

my friends have several rock islands no complaints.

When I bought 2000 rounds of 9mm Oct of 2019, it cost 22 cents/ round delivered. Adjust for inflation and its really close to that now. I hope it stays low, I can't buy right now.

I don't shoot much anymore just .22s mostly
but I have some new shooters in the family my great niece's and great nephew's fiance
I mainly just get training ammo for them it's about as cheap to buy bulk as reload anymore they help pay for it.
I was surprised to see the shield plus went down to 369.00 at my local shop mine was 450.00 with a 50.00 rebate just last spring
And they go have a optics ready with a range bag and three mags version for 450.00
The gx4 is around 250-275.00 often I like both of them equally.
