I'm typically not this guy. My Lymann 49th isn't currently available. Gonna load some 10mm and I don't have any historical data for this round as the XDM 10 is a new acquisition. I found a recipe online and I currently only have #5 and Blue Dot on hand. I figured I would give the Blue Dot a try as it was really fun in 357Sig and works well in 40. I understand BD prefers loads at higher pressures. Will be using once fired Federal cases.
Data from powderthrough.com
Anyone have thoughts about that resource?
Here's what I've come up with. 10mm isn't brand new to me its just been 7 or more years since I had one.

10.5 grain Blue Dot
155 grain xtreeme RNFP
Remington large pistol primer
COAL 1.250

Looks to be mid level and within safe. Thank you for your input.

150 gr JACKETED HP bullet: AA#5 starting 7.0 gr., Max load, 9.0 gr. Same COAL and primers.
