I just shot my first rounds out of a new Glock 20 (Remington 180gr).
How are these on the power scale- are they just 40s&w in a 10mm or are the factory rounds loaded to 'full' 10mm specs. Don't have a chrony, which I know would help. |

With the exception of Winchester 175 grain silver tips pretty much every mainstream 10mm load is just a hair more zippy than a 40. You have to go to the specialty brands to get hotter 10mm - it is definitely more of a reloaders cartridge.
I shot a friends glock 29 and felt it recoiled less with factory ammo than my glock 27 with full house loads |

Quoted:
Surprisingly many ammo makers do not put specs as far as velocity fpme psi etc on ammo boxes! Kind of like a food container without an ingredients or nutrition data Granted, I haven't bought factory pistol ammo in awhile, but most of them usually seem to have it on there somewhere. Remington was one of them that I thought did. |

Quoted: The 10mm Remington 180gr is spec'ed at 1150 FPS / 529 Ft lbs. The Winchester Silvertip 10mm is 1290 FPS / 649 Ft lbs for comparison.  One of these things is NOT like the other. Dont believe Midway USA. |
