    Can a 10mm do all & more than a .40?

    Hi Guys, I have a real simple (novice) question. It seems that the 10mm can do everything and more that a .40 can do. The 10mm is more costly and all. But, if you were fortunate enough to reload (not me) it seems that the 10mm would be a better choice??? Thanks, Dave

    Starter gun suggestions for IPSC?

    Howdy Friends, That action shooting sounds like a kick in the pants. I was at the range a few days ago and the guy down a few lanes was shooting a .38 super- compensated. Without seeing what he was shooting- I thought he had a machine gun. Later, it sort of scared me to think a hand gun...

    S&W J-frame snubbie questions?

    All this talk about snubbies has roused my interest. Read a recent article in Am Handgunner re the super light weight ones. He was saying that below 15oz? the .38 was not fun to shoot due to the recoil. Any truth to that? 2. What's the purpose of the DAO (internal hammer) vs. the SA/DA...

    Quality/ Affordable ear protection for large cal. revolvers?

    Howdy: Well, got to shoot a 6" 586 for the first time. Really enjoyed it a lot. There's somthing special about a big revolver. I expected the recoil to be worse. I was told the ammo was pretty hot. Didn't get the details on it. Now I'm thinking maybe I need to move up to a .44 Mag...
