I wouldn't call 1250 fps 185 grain loads as target loads. If I want to download 10mm, I'd rather shoot .40S&W, and I have two of those to choose from. I shot the same load in the 2nd gen G20 I owned for 25 years and got swelled cases for my trouble because of the unsupported chamber. The recoil shock was much worse in the G20, too, the heavier 1911 frame and grip shape are better for me, and it has a fully supported chamber.
No thats decent. At least the Ruger is one of the better 1911s. I think Rowland recomends them on his list for the 460. Curious what Ruger says about shooting the Hot stuff through their 1911s.
Dont get me wrong. I am not trying to dis on your pistol or the 1911 as I like them too. I am just leary of throwing certain calibers in different types of platforms. 1911 is a design of its time for cartridges of its time IMO. I honestly think JMB would have used a lock delay style more like the Sig (or Automag IV) had he been around when the 10mm was developed. I think I was talking about this with someone here a few years back and throwing around ideas and remembered back to the days of the Springfield Omega pistols which used a similar setup.
I am not a huge fan of Glocks to be honest but the 20 (better yet the 40) is a nice platform for 10mm (or 40/357sig for that matter). I like the Sig 10mm a bit more. Hopefully the XD brings back the larger 10mms back. Those interest me as I like the XD but I dont like buying pistols new on the market until they are vetted a little more. If those come back and hold up to full 10mm I can see me grabbing one with a bunch of different barrel chamberings.
