Hey y'all. As you may remember, I recently started rolling my own for the mighty 10mm Auto. Been a real fun ride so far. As of yet the only handloads I've put through it are around 200 rounds of 155-grain Hornady XTP, at about 1340-1350 fps on average. My question is for you, fellow 10mm 1911 shooters who feed your weapons the hotter ammo, such as Double Tap, Buffalo Bore, Georgia Arms, and your own warmer handloads.
How do you have your guns set up to handle those loads? My bone-stock Kimber ST II handled my loads very well, but I am wondering how it would fare with a steady diet of them, or maybe a steady diet of 180-grainers @ 1150-1250 fps. I know some say just shoot it & don't worry, but I'm a bit wary about going that route. Any input?
