Quote HistoryQuoted: Or c) don't want to haul around a huge, heavy-ass revolver every time you go hiking. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: 10mm is a good choice for a woods gun if you are: a) more concerned about two legged predators than the four legged kind and want the increased capacity; or b) are not a competent revolver shooter. Or c) don't want to haul around a huge, heavy-ass revolver every time you go hiking. I'll try to remember to weigh the G20 versus the revolvers tonight. I bet it isn't that different loaded, but I may be wrong. |

We live in bear country. I carry a Glock 20, Smith 329 or a Glock 21 loaded with 45 Supers when working around the place. Yesterday I worked in the woods all day with a Glock 20 on my hip, today I carried my 329. I have to say the 329 is barely noticeable when walking up and down steep slopes. with a chainsaw. Once I find a suitable IWB holster for my 4" Smith M&P 10, it will go into the rotation. When I hike or hunt I carry a 454 Casull Ruger Toklat in a chest holster.
I am torn between a heavy revolver or a red dot semi auto. When a bear means business there is not a lot of time for a mag dump. A couple of good shots are all you may get, if that. Other than the bulk and weight of the revolver, my preference would be a large caliber revolver for stopping a pissed off bear. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:From this last panic 10mm lasted on the shelf here longer than most other calipers. That and 6.5 Cr. I made it a point to have both. This is like the * at the bottom of any 401k or trading estimate: Current trends do not indicate what "future panics" might bring. With more types of ammo on the shelves compared to previous panics it will be interesting to see the trends....though I hope we come out of this one soon and we don't see another in the next 30 years.

Quote HistoryQuoted:IN the 48 contiguous states of USA 9mm Nato 124 Grain FMJ will take care of most threats. Big cats (cougars, mountain lions, Black bears) Everything else 10mm will do fine. Unless you run across a pissed off Bigfoot or DogMan/WolfMan. If you spend time out in the woods a 10mm Semi auto would be a good idea to carry around all the time. IF Legal in your AO. Now North of the US Canada border things get interesting. You can get larger brown bears even some kodaks have been seen north of Washington state into Canada. SO From what I am told if you want to kill everything around here just use 12 GA Semi Auto Shotgun with Slugs. Carry a change of clothes. Pants shirt underwear socks maybe even shoes incase you shit your pants during the encounter. I have been wanting to get a 10mm but after talking to some of theses guys. "I" don't really need one. HOWEVER "YOU" may need one. as always Your Mileage May Vary.

Quote HistoryQuoted: The Glock 20 is absolutely massive, I almost bought one until I held it and realized I'd never carry it in the woods. The 1911 10mm's can be smaller but are heavy. I carry 9mm in town in a much smaller package (Sig P365). When I hike, I carry 357 magnum. It does everything the 10mm does in a 17 ounce package (Ruger KLCR). It's the perfect woods gun, so light you forget it's there. If I'm planning on shooting something (small game) I'll carry my Ruger SP101 with a 4.2" barrel. If I was actually concerned about bears, I'd carry my 44 Mag (S&W 629). The 10mm is like the Ford Raptor. It's awesome and powerful and expensive and sexy and probably has more power than you'll ever need until you actually have to tow something big then there are much better options. https://i.imgur.com/4ED7cPX.png Do you never carry a full sized semiauto? The G20 is only slightly larger in size than the G22. I could see if you had tiny hands or never carried a full sized handgun you might think of it as being a larger handgun |

And even if the scale is off, it would be consistently off for all guns. Still, the loaded G20 being about 20% lighter and carrying 2.5 times the ammo of the Ruger SRH is a substantial difference. |

I've only run 220s through a ~ 7" barrel and was impressed. The performance is fine. Reliability isn't. The ogive doesn't jive well with Glocks. 200s work fine. I just finished a development cycle with 200 gr XTP's and I'm happy with them. Along the way I learned that full-house load recoil in my glock 20 will make me thumb the slide catch up and prematurely lock the slide open if I don't have a backstrap installed. So I ground a little off the slide catch and I believe that fixed the issue. One of these days I'm going to post a bunch of 10mm velocity data for commercial ammo and handloads. Teaser: every commercial outfit overstates their MV. Who would've guessed they play specsmanship games? |

I was on my friend's grandfather's ranch in central Florida and I can only tell the story now because my friend passed away. There was a 10-foot gator in the biggest watering hole/pond on the ranch and my friend wanted it gone, so he shot it from shore with a 12-ga. slug that hit it in the neck. The gator thrashed around for a while, then wound up looking dead, lying on its back on a small, protruding dirt mound sticking out of the water about six feet from shore. My friend wanted the hide and skull, so he went back to the barn to look for something to use to hook the gator and pull it in, leaving me and my wife there waiting for him. Well, the gator WASN'T dead and it turned back over and charged out of the water straight at me. I had a Smith 1066 in a shoulder holster and I yanked it out and dumped a whole mag into him. He looked dead, but he'd looked dead before, so I put another mag into him just to be sure. I wish to assure all legal-minded people that I acted purely in self-defense and had no prior knowledge or involvement in my friend's actions...and of course, it's well beyond the statute of limitations even if I had.  |

Mag - 48 ounces Glock 20Gen4 10mm Auto - 41 ounces I should mention that my Alaskan has after market Hogue fancy wood grips on it which weight a bit more than the factory rubber grips. @Trout_Hunter Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: 10mm is a good choice for a woods gun if you are: a) more concerned about two legged predators than the four legged kind and want the increased capacity; or b) are not a competent revolver shooter. Or c) don't want to haul around a huge, heavy-ass revolver every time you go hiking. I'll try to remember to weigh the G20 versus the revolvers tonight. I bet it isn't that different loaded, but I may be wrong. I'll betcha the Glock 20 isn't as heavy as a .454 Casull revolver. Not as much difference as you might think. Here are the numbers using my kitchen scale, rounded to the nearest ounce. All handguns were weighed fully loaded. Ruger SRH Alaskan in .454 Casull - 50 ounces Ruger Super Blackhawk 4 5/8' bbl in .44 Rem Mag. - 48 ounces S&W 629 4" bbl in .44 Rem. Mag - 48 ounces Glock 20Gen4 10mm Auto - 41 ounces I should mention that my Alaskan has after market Hogue fancy wood grips on it which weight a bit more than the factory rubber grips. @Trout_Hunter Thanks for taking the time to weigh these out. I am thinking of duel wielding G20s now. |

Yeah. The Magtech and Sig ammo are pretty good for factory 10mm.
Stay away from S&B. S&B felt the same as .40 for the recoil. Underpowered. |
