10mm Auto (Handloader issue #340) (Handloader TV) |
 |
| Warning! A SIG Sauer P320X-TEN 10mm Auto with a 5-inch barrel was used to test all loads. Starline cases and Federal 150M primers were used throughout. An Area 419 Zero Reloading Press was used for all handloading and an RCBS Matchmaster scale was used to weigh and dispense powder. All charges were accurate to .04 grains. A Ransom International Master Series Rest was used for all accuracy testing with the target at 15 yards. An Oehler Model 35P chronograph 10 was used to record all velocities at 10 feet. The temperature was 93 degrees Fahrenheit, wind 1-5 mph, humidity 22 percent, altitude was 5,000 feet and pressure was 25.20 in HG according to a Kestrel 5700. Source: Handloader October/November 2022 issue #340. Special Note for the Power Pistol loads: The charge weight should have produced higher velocities as this is close to maximum charge weight in most reloading manuals. A potentially slow lot of powder producing lower than expected velocity. Watch the Handloader TV Segment: Handloader TV – Load Development Segment |
