    I'd personally like to try .38 Super, but that's just me.

      what are you planning on using it for? 10mm can be loaded/bought at .40sw velocities or all the way up too 41mag velocities,bigger heavier bullet,made in quite a few guns,pistols,revolvers,think there are AR15 uppers in 10mm also.

      38 super is a nice cartridge also but imo not as versatile.
      satisfaction is the death of desire...

      its still "We the people"...right?

        It can go the same way with the super some loads are right there with 357 mag light loads just like the 10mm does compared to light 41mag loads. Some of the major factor loads in IPSC are well into the mag velocity but are only safe in pistols with supported chambers.

          The reason IPSC uses .38 super is to meet the power requirements. 9mm has to be loaded to pretty hot/dangerous levels, people prefer to use .38 super simply because it's safer with the case capacity, and the cases last longer. Within pressure specs, 10mm delivers 30% more energy than 38 super.
