I'm interested in trying it. My CA compliant 10mm ammo right now is Cor Bon DPX 155 gn cause there isn't much available in non lead 10mm. I use the BB 200 gn hard cast when I'm out of state. This might be a better option.

The trick will be finding some to buy.

After the 45-70 mono metal loads were released, I went into Alaska Ammo to see if they were going to carry them. I also expressed how sweet a 10mm offering would be. Guess they listened.

Pretty spendy rounds though. Hopefully Lehigh will sell the bullets. Been thinking about loading some of their mono WFN to mimic the $90/box BB load. Hoping that’ll be an option for 10mm too.

I’m in the same CA boat as you. This looks like a good option. When we could still get ammo online, I bought some Underwood 10mm that use the Lehigh Extreme Penetrator bullet. Only 140 gn but 1500 FPS.

Interesting.

I wasn’t aware BB made heavy flat nose FMJ 10mm. Seems that would address the whole glock barrel issue easier than buying a new barrel to shoot hardcast.

Yep^...no doubt that was their thought.

Guys, in CA you can have ammo shipped to an FFL, some are pretty reasonable. I'm in the process of picking up a G20sf and as part of the deal I want the ammo drop shipped to the FFL.

If you go on CALGUNS.ORG they have threads on who will take shipment of your ammo and for how much- some are really cheap.

I called Alaska Ammo, all they told me is they would have it in August. I’ll be in there the 8th before heading out to hunt.

I could be wrong, but I have heard fmj bullets can separate from there core and shorten penetration. I think these would be more of a solid, and combined with the flat nose, should be a very good penetrator.
