Finally was able to shoot my g20sf yesterday.  A buddy gave me some Blazer 200 grn 10mm. I thought the load was anemic at best. Very un-impressed with it.  I have a order with Georgia arms but there on a 5-7 week wait. The only ammo ive been able to find online thats "In-stock" is Double Tap for about .80 a shot. Or federal Personal defence 180grn HP's for .70 a shot. Have any of you guys tried either??

i cant find any specs on the federal , but the double tap looks like its hotter than most of the flavors out there. With the performance of the blazer ammo, i can see why the 10mm never got huge in popularity. To bad most makers dont load the 10 to its potential!!!!

The original 10mm loadings that came out with the introduction of the Bren Ten Pistol were not anemic nor weak.. The pistol couldn't handle the loadings....

Doubletap is the shit.  Great stuff.  You won't be disappointed.  I've put about 1,500 rounds of DT ammo through my G20 - lots of fun.

How did you make your assessment?  Chrony?  Clearing pins?  Moving steel plates?  Perceived recoil?

^^Very true sir!!  in 1985 I was buying Norma +P solid brass truncated cone loads (later outlawed) those things were just flat evil.. lol lol lol

made a 2 foot fireball at the muzzle  PMC had some pretty hot stuff back then as well...
try the Corbon 10mm loads.. 150GR JHP @ 1300FPS.  kinda pricey though...

I still have that same Delta Elite to this day and it still runs like a clock... but the BrenTen had issues with slides and frames cracking when loaded hot.
