    After watching a ton of hickock videos, it's easy to underestimate just how mind-blowingly accurate he is with handguns.

    • @1jimmarch
      @1jimmarch 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      He's using a specific technique only available to people who are hand and eye dominant on either side. He's right handed, left eyed.
      He's got his right arm dead straight, right cheek on his right bicep, left eye behind the sights. This gives him an extra point of stabilizing contact.
      I'm wired the same way. Hurts us doing long gun work but in handguns, we can lean into it.
      For close range we tighten both arms, elbows bent and dropped, bring the sights closer in.

    My EDC is a Glock 29 (smaller) 10mm. It is a tack driver and has been very reliable. I carry it with Winchester 175 grain Silver tips. Recoil is really not bad and probably less than my G-23 and G-27 in that department, in part due to the massive slide on these things. I feel more confident with it than a .45 because this will punch through car doors and like barricades if needed and a .45 may not.

    @TheWhip8100 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I was doing the same thing when I began shooting again after about 15 years of not shooting much. Typically what causes that is Recoil Anticipation. This means that you are pushing forward slightly in attempt to "combat" the recoil. Just relax and let the recoil happen and your shots will hit center. It takes discipline and practice to get rid of the habit, but you can do it! Hope this helps.

    Great video! I just picked up 50 Underwood 220gr hard cast rounds for about $50, which included shipping. Still a little steep, but seems cheap compared to the BB. There's a good spreadsheet I found for comparing the energy from these two rounds too. I believe the Underwood round was about 100fps faster than the BB too, which considering it's a cheaper round makes it all the sweeter. Here's the data:
    UNDERWOOD 220GR HC - 1,211fps - 717 ft-lbf
    BUFFALO BORE 220GR HCFN 21C - 1,109fps - 601 ft-lbf

    If you are asking whether a .40 S&W bullet will travel down the barrel of a 10mm, it will, because they have the same diameter. But to fire a .40 S&W cartridge in a 10mm semi-auto pistol is not recommended (very different chamber dimensions)

    from Buffalo Bore
    Hard Cast Bullets in Polygonal Barrels
    HARD CAST BULLETS IN POLYGONAL BARRELS
    True hard cast bullets (as opposed to lead swaged bullets) that are properly lubed will not lead foul polygonal barrels any more than any other type of rifled barrel. Ever since Glock Corporation warned to not use lead bullets in their pistols with polygonal barrels, a myth that hard cast bullets will lead foul polygonal barrels has become wide spread in some parts of the firearms world. However, the myth is untrue. Hard cast bullets are not "lead" bullets. (See my article on "Dangerous Pure Lead Cowboy Bullets")
    Pure lead or nearly pure lead bullets have a tendency to foul any barrel, not just polygonal barrels. Years ago, when several Glock pistols experienced cracked barrels because of fouling build up from shooting pure lead bullets, Glock issued a warning not to shoot lead bullets in their polygonal barrels. From that warning, the myth that you should not shoot hard cast bullets in polygonal barrels was born.
    Provided you use real hard cast bullets with good lube, you can shoot them all you like in polygonal barrels without causing lead fouling deposits at the front of your chamber or anywhere else in the barrel. If you are concerned about lead fouling from hard cast bullets, all you have to do is to clean your barrel after firing hard cast bullets and before firing any jacketed bullets. However, in my experience, quality hard cast bullets won't foul a Glock polygonal barrel or any other type of barrel but lead bullets normally will.

      @JeffinTD 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I shot many hard cast bullets from a 1st gen 9mm Glock back in the day, with no leading and with plain based bullets.
      Just use quality bullets and data specific to cast bullets from a reliable source, and use your head and when developing a new load check the barrel periodically.
      I do use gas checks for 44 magnum at higher power levels. Whether a gas check is needed for 10mm would depend on choice of bullet, powder, and charge level.

    Yes. It will be held in place by your extractor. The headspace is different. If you fire too many of them one of two things will occur; The front end of your chamber will get dirty and will need to be cleaned or it may cause a KB, and you'll over stress the extractor and it will crack and break causing a real nasty lock up. But, yes, it's okay for a few rounds or in an emergency.

    Thanks for the test, Hickok45/10...I'm glad that the BB load spins. I've read that it's about the non-jacketed types skidding across the 'grooves' , instead of getting a good bite. Polygonal being inverted and not gripping the round with an edge. If it's not hardness, then it's curious to me. The Glock barrel is a bit tighter as well, which would help.

  • @rbrtck
    @rbrtck 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I don't have a 10mm pistol, but just for fun I've shot the .40 S&W load of the Double Tap 200-grain WFNGC hard-cast boolit, and had at least one failure to feed out of a box, as I recall. This is out of a dead-reliable pistol that hadn't had any such failures before or since. As far as I can tell from limited experience, the load is pretty reliable, but perhaps not quite as reliable as FMJ or hollow-points.
    Normal factory 10mm/.40 bullets always have a flat nose or meplat, and those tend to be 6-6.5 mm wide, while the 200-grain WFNGC's meplat is about 8 mm wide (and punches nice, clean holes in paper like a SWC round), which is a significant difference and could be a factor in its reduced feeding reliability (if in fact this is true to begin with). The Buffalo Bore boolit appears to be similar, although I don't have one to measure. Another potential factor is that the hard lead may not be quite as slick as the copper jacket alloy (usually gilding metal--a mild brass). Overall it works, but for actual woods carry in grizzly country I think I'd opt for a .44 Magnum, .454 Casull (or an extra-hot .45 Colt load), or at least a hot .357 Magnum load in a revolver.

      @@FrankO-ek1ec Yes, some have said that they shoot hardcast out of stock barrel with no major issues (maybe just needing to clean it more frequently). But others recommend to ket a KKM or Lone Wolf barrel in order to shoot the heavier led bullets. Personally, I will probably stick with the stock barrel and buy 200 grain hardcast underwood for the woods - I probably will not end up shooting much of it anyway.

The ramp of the barrel was also machined to allow the larger cast loads to feed reliably, and it has worked well so far with the 200grain Under Armor. Still need to test the 220 grain.

    It would interesting to find out if Underwood settled on 220 grain as their top 10mm load based on Hickok45's series of hardcast tests, or if they decided on 220 purely through parallel, independent testing.
    But UW 220 grain hardcast seems to be the very best, top of the line factory 10mm load for critter defense or hunting. The heaviest while still being stable, and the hottest.

    Depends on the loads, Full Powered Loads I would say yes. Plus you get 15+1, while the most you can get of 357 Magnum is 8 I believe. Only Issue I see with 10mm is manufactures loading the bullets to 40 S&W specs.. :/

  • @seventhSabra
    @seventhSabra 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    That's pretty accurate. My 20SF, 29SF and 30SF converted to a 29SF have less recoil than the 21SF and 30SF assuming a roughly equivalent load. .357 is much more of a snap (like hot .40), 10mm is a strong push backwards, and .45 is a push with a fair amount of snap.
    Just got a second 21SF to convert to .460 Roland (will still shoot .45 ACP), should be fun. 10mm is still by far the best pistol round especially if you need a round that can take a bear but not be overkill for a bad guy.

      Glock doesn't manufacture compact pistols when it comes to 10mm Auto and .45 Auto because there's no real benefit to having a compact pistol with the larger cartridges. They do, however, manufacture the model 38 which is chambered in .45 G.A.P. which utilizes the 19/23/32 frame.

      So why isn't it "too much" for the sub-compact? This also bothered me when looking at the glock lineup. I understand why they don't have a compact 45acp because they need to justify the existence of their 45gap round for which they do make a compact. But why don't they make a compact 10mm?

    Underwood also makes a 220 grain Hard Cast RFN cartridge.
    I hear that the Underwood version is somewhat said to be superior to the Buffalo Bore 220 Grain Hard Cast.
    In that the Underwood 10mm caliber 220grain Hardcast Lead rounds, the bullets are coated to prevent Leading in the barrel, as well as that metallic cartridge cases are also nickel plated.
    As well as the pricing of the Underwood ammunition is usually at a lesser cost, than that of the Bufallo Bore ammunition.

    As Mr Hickok said, the hardcast rounds are absolutley ideal for defense against a large wild predator, as it will garner maximum penetration.
    As for the 2 legged predator, hardcast will OVERpenetrate, & possibly hit an innocent in a self defense scenario. (no bueno)
    So use soft leaded FMJ/defense rounds for urban carry, & hardcast for a backup whilst hunting!
