About 10mm Auto Ammunition

The 10mm Auto, often referred to as 10mm, is a potent handgun cartridge that was introduced in 1983. When compared to standard, non-specialty .357 Magnum loadings, the 10mm Auto is capable of producing higher energies. Specialty 10mm Auto loadings are on par with specialty, high performance .357 Magnum loadings. The cartridge is often compared to the 9mm Luger and .45 ACP as they are common semi-automatic cartridges of the time. The 10mm Auto essentially has high velocities, like 9mm Luger, and larger, heavier projectiles, like .45 ACP, providing shooters with a versatile and capable round. The 10mm Auto will notably have a stout and snappy recoil impulse which is accompanied by flat trajectories.

Types of 10mm Auto Loadings

• Full Metal Jacket (FMJ): Like the name suggests, these types of loadings feature projectiles which are adorned with metal jacketing. This jacket is generally made of copper and will cover the tip and sides of the projectile. Typically, the base of the projectile is left uncoated. These types of loadings are well-suited for range use and are some of the most common types of ammo one will encounter.
• Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP): JHP loadings feature hollow point projectiles which are adorned with a full metal jacket. These loadings are generally found in the form of defensive ammo offerings and are designed to facilitate reliable expansion upon impact. Additionally, these types of loadings are designed to achieve adequate levels of penetration for defensive purposes while not overpenetrating the target and risking collateral damage. A good hollow point loading is one that achieves an appropriate level of penetration while expanding reliably upon impact within the target.
• Hard Cast Flat Nose (HCFN): These types of loadings feature distinct flat projectiles which are a stark contrast to typical pointed and rounded projectiles. While these loadings may have inferior velocity potentials, their flat nose design is intended to deliver effective terminal ballistics. Simply put, these types of loadings are optimized for defensive use due to their effective terminal ballistics and wounding capabilities.
• eXtreme Terminal Performance (XTP): These loadings feature specialty XTP projectiles from Hornady. These bullets are optimal for use cases such as hunting, defense, and duty use depending on the caliber and specific loading. These loadings are designed to provide consistent and controlled expansion in addition to a high degree of accuracy.
• Hollow Point (HP): HP loadings feature hollow point projectiles like the name suggests. This removal of material makes the projectile lighter and promotes high velocities. These types of loadings are optimized for self defense or match use and have a tendency to expand on impact. A good hollow point loading is one that achieves an appropriate level of penetration while expanding reliably upon impact within the target.

Choosing 10mm Ammo by Bullet Type, Grain Weight, and Round Count

Start with what you plan to do. For range sessions and training, FMJ loadings are well-suited and are among the most common types of ammo you will find. For self-defense, look at JHP, HP, and HCFN loadings. For hunting, XTP loadings are one option, depending on the specific loading. Each product listing shows the bullet weight in grains, the bullet type, the brand, and the round count. That lets you compare box sizes and bulk case quantities side by side before you order.
