I told some of my buddies I shoot with that I was going to get a g20 10mm today. He started with "have you seen the reloading data for VV N105 200gr .40 S&W. Sure enough, it looks good. They claim 1132fps with a 200gr. Just barely slower then the same bullet powder combo in 10mm. Anyone have any experience with this setup. I know when I look at any other data the 10mm is much better (Double Tap, Buffalo Bore). But this one combo got my thinking "Souped up .40, Lone Wolf Barrel, Heavy Spring in a G22"

Edit: Oh, and I did look the N105 Data is out of a Test Barrel not a real gun.

I have tried N105 in 40sw and 10mm.
The published data looks good.
It is all BS. [What? published load data is BS?]

I know the 10MM slide on a G20 is the heavest slide Glock makes to slow down slide speed . And the spring is heavy. I know Kimber slide is heavier then 45 or 40 slide . I wonder how long a G22 or G35 would stay together after repeted pounding with that load ???? The 10MM was built from the ground up with 200 grainers at 1200fps in mind the 40S&W were thrown to gether with 180 grain bullet going 1000FPS and fit in 9MM frame . That my 2 cents

Thats actually a pretty tough load to find.
