10mm Pros

Like we said, the 10mm is a multitalented round. Whether you’re taking it out on the range or in the field, 10mm will keep you covered with its velocity and stopping power. In the field, 10mm works as a fine round for handgun hunting or as hunting backup. If calamity strikes while you’re out hunting, the 10mm can take down almost any game. And being a semi-automatic round, you’ll be able to fire multiple shots very quickly.

10mm Cons

The main concern that 10mm shooters should be wary of is the round’s recoil. If you’re a seasoned shooter, the recoil off of 10mm is not going to be a problem. Comparing the 10mm to another strong round, the .45ACP, you won’t see that big of a difference in recoil.

 

Also be mindful of its power, if you’re using 10mm for home-defense situations. It’s stopping power is powerful enough to exit threats at dangerous speeds. So during defense situations, make sure you keep yourself, your family and your property safe when firing 10mm.

 

Because the 10mm round isn’t as available as 9mm rounds, you may have to dish out more money for 10mm ammunition. The difference won’t be huge, but you should be aware of this before you go shopping.
