I handload for my 10mm & I'm getting 1300fps with the Hornady 200gr XTP bullet. It's basically a max load using AA9 powder. It is very accurate in both my Glock 20 & my Kimber 10mm. It will completly exit & leave a huge wound channel through big feral hogs. I carry the Glock when I'm bow hunting here in Texas, because it carries 16 rounds with one in the pipe.
Carrying a handgun here in Texas is perfectly legal during archery season if you have a CHL.
I also have a S&W model 57 Mountain Gun in 41 mag with a 4"bbl.
I carry it some in NM or CO when i'm bow hunting or fly fishing in black bear country. I have some handloads with a 250gr LBT hard cast WFN bullet going nearly 1300fps. Maximum load of WW-296
It's quite a handfull, but it will certainly do just about anything my 44 mags will do, with a little less recoil & its much lighter to carry than my Clement's Custom Super Blackhawk in 44 mag. You can get Buffalo Bore ammo for either caliber in hard cast LBT type bullets with a big wide meplat from Cabela's.
Either caliber is a great choice for handgun hunting if you choose the right bullet/ammo.
