Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns HPR 10mm 180gr JHP XTP @ 1270FPS

Bought a few boxes of HPR 10mm loaded with the 180gr Hornady XTP at an advertised 1270fps.

HPR markets their ammo as "hyper clean" burning with minimal airborne emissions.
I didn't notice any difference in report between them or my standard Georgia Arms 180gr Gold Dots @ 1150fps,
but they are shiny.

Getting dark earlier, but managed to empty a magazine of 8 into a nice fist sized target at 15 yards.
Appears to be a nice stout load and further evidence that the 10mm is alive and well.

Good speeds.

Good info.

Nice pistol.

GFY.


Travis

VERY nice pistol!

Thanks guys. Unfortunately the bastid is heavy and only holds 8 rds. Starting to feel like one of those old farts with a 1873 Peacemaker at the range.

Don't feel bad, I love my heavy ass Delta.



Travis

Heavy is good with those full blast 10mm's.

Valid point.



Travis

kamp, did you buy that ammo locally?

If 8 rnds of 180 gn XTPs at 1270 FPS can't solve the problem, it's probably not fixable without a rifle in hand.

Think I still feel well equipped with a DE.

No, I bought it on link below. They look to be out now where as a few weeks ago they had ~10.
Bought 3 boxes at $34.50. Should have bought em all, gonna start reloading soon dont you know.
Rockchucker in corner of room still staring at me.
