Yes, cor-bon 10mm ammo is weaker than real 10mm ammo, but high priced. Thier 9mm ammo and 45acp and 38 spl is good stuff though.

Many ammo makers say and claim its because at true 10mm speeds the bullets break up, i say then use the appropriate bullet.

Still, the 10mm non+P pushes a 180gr slug as fast as 124gr +P+ 9mm.

Granted, different barrel lengths.

There is no +p 10mm. Its either true 10mm or 10mm in name only like with the big three or four.

Fair enough.

"At or below normal 10mm pressures pushes a beyond-all-regulation +P+ 9mm. . .

For 9mm, I'll stick with 147gr HST or Gold Dot.

Really BB, DT, and Underwood only provide woods rounds for me with their hard cast loads.
