Here is my Glock 20 10 MM in its new form. I replace the trigger with a Fulcrum, Light Weight Firing Pin and 3 lb Spring, Firing Pin Block with Titanium , Extended Slide Lock, Wolf 6 inch Barrel , SS Guide Rod with 20 lb Recoil Rod, Adjustable Meprolight Night Sights . I used a Wolf Extractor and springs. I guess you could say i replaced everything in the pistol but the firing pin channel liner.

THAT is one heckuva fine pistola there! I can totally dig everything about it, especially the caliber.
PM me if you want my hogsmakin 10mmm load recipe for 180gr HP's at 1375 with good case life. Not advisable for guns with no case support, but I don't even get a smiley face on the case with my Storm Lake 10mm barrel for my Delta Elite.
Your new barrel would handle these, as well.
Congratulations!

I'm loading the 200 gr Hornady XTP with a Max Load of Longshot for my hunting load. Mark are you using Blue Dot in your 10 MM?

After a bit of experimenting and chronographing, I have settled on AA#9 as my favorite with 180-200gr bullets. The bottle of powder says right on it "Specifically formulated for max loads in the 10mm auto cartridge." That got my attention and I have found it to be a good choice. My load gives about a 95% full case after the bullet is seated. Most other powders showed some creasing of the cartridge case (aka 'smiley faces') before I got to my velocity goal.

I use AA9 in my 357 magnum Pistol and have looked at it for the 10mm but it takes up a lot space in the case and i will try it. I was just going to start with Longshot and the Hornady 200 gr. I just picked 300 of them at the local gun shop. I do have both powder to work with .

Personally I like a powder that fills the case. I find that such loads offer really good shot to shot consitency with low velocity variations. My load has a shot to shot velocity deviation of under 10fps. OK, here it is for all to see but
THIS LOAD IS ONLY SAFE IN GUNS WITH BARRELS WHICH SUPPORT THE WHOLE CARTRIDGE CASE, STIIFER THAN FACTORY RECOIL SPRINGS SHOULD BE USED AND ONLY WITH NEW UNFIRED STARLINE BRASS OR CASES
14.6 gr of AA#9, Winchester primer and new starline cases. Speer Gold DOt 180gr hollow point bullet.

You, sir, just put a picture to the project I'm starting with the G20 I brought to TN. The only difference (I'm still on the fence) is my internal debate over a Leupold Deltapoint or a Trijicon RMR. It'll be doing duty exclusively (in theory) as a hunter, so......

That's the way I'm leaning if I go the optic route. It makes sense for the purpose, but there's still a part of me that cringes at the thought of putting an optic on a working gun.
You'll likely get a chance to blood yours before I do on legitimate game, but I don't doubt they'll make a hell of a deer/bear gun!

George just to be honest , i don't like optics on a handgun for hunting

I'm using Starline Brass for my loading in this pistol. George the range is just to limited for a pistol even the 10mm to justify leaving iron sights for the optics unless your eyesight dictates you have to . Gunner wonder where a man can find a five shot pistol chambered for the 577 NE?

Starline brass and a big charge of AA-#9 or Power Pistol will get that heifer cooking.
