If you buy the LPS, be sure to get 30mm rings. The 1" ones won't fit. If you want a piece of glass that is pleasing to look through, look through a Nightforce. You will want nothing less, well, maybe a Schmidt & Bender is up there too.
Used a RRA high picatinny scope mount. Glass was a Leupold VXIII 4.5-14.50mm. I thought the triggers were supposed to be superb on these varmint models, like a 2-stage national match or something? This trigger felt like utter junk. Creepy as all get out, and a bit heavy.
Ammo used...
weeelllll, I was using sandbags... :) My chrono tends to read a bit higher when the temps are cold. I notice most other people's loads in all my guns seem to shoot faster than they get, maybe it's the atmospheric pressures or something here in the southeast. I dunno, but I know I like this...
I was expecting them to be slower and a little bit more of a spread, but they did pleasantly surprise me, no pun intended. I was shocked at the amount of muzzle flash from this little fire breather....
Just a FYI, I saw Mike posting on GlockTalk (has a dedicated section to 10mm) that he will be out on Friday and all orders from Friday-Sunday will be processes starting Monday. He's going to the SHOT show.
Bought the 155gr Speer GoldDot quoted @ 1475fps.
Bought the 135gr Nosler JHP quoted @1600fps
Both are quoted for a 4.6" BBL
Chrono showed 1450-1456fps for the Speer 155gr GoldDots
1580-1585fps for the Nosler 135gr JHP
These are from a G29. Not sure on the BBL...
Looking forward to getting them in the next few days Mike. I put another 100 rounds through it of ball ammo, and then another 10 of Hydra Shoks. Not one problem today, but it did "feel" underpowered with them though. I'll post a report of the doubletap ammo when I try 'em. Thanks.

Shooting Federal Premium 180gr Hydra Shok JHP's, I had SEVERAL FTF's. ONLY when shooting this ammo. I shot one mag full and it FTF almost EVERY time. I put a mag of UMC 180gr FMJ's in and it functioned FLAWLESSLY. Put another mag of Hydra Shoks in and same FTF problems. It was like the slide was...

axeman, the "normal" price to people he doesn't know personally for years is $569. The owner of the store is a personal friend of mine and has been for years :)
New G29 10mm - Problem
This is a little fire breathing DEMON of a piece. Man, I love how easy it is to conceal and the shear power of this round. $485 out the door new in the box is a prety good deal I think. See last post for info on problem.
