You called it right, I have a Glock 20. I have no problem using 10-mm ammo, but since I am going to order online, I wanted some tips on what to buy. I haven’t fired it in fifteen years. Any danger there? I still have three 50-rnd boxes of practice rounds and one 20-rnd box of Federal hollow points, but with the way things are going, I figured it is time to purchase more.
With all due respect FRiend you may have waited to long. Ammo and firearms supplies are drying up and prices are rising. Good luck though
Personally I look at this as somebody in my federal government doing something useful for a change and generating a shopping list for me. Pity it wasn't a little more before Christmas, though.
I have a Colt Delta Elite, and I'm pretty well stocked w/ ammo, but I suppose that right now, there is a slight advantage in having a less than mainstream round. I was in Academy last night, and the 50 rd. boxes of Blazer FMJ were still about $25. The Hornady Hollow points were about $24 for a 25 round box, which are not aberrant prices for 10mm. Moreover, there still seemed to be quite a bit in stock (though once they're gone, I'm guessing they'll be few and far between).
Every gun show over the past few years, I've been picking up Winchester Silver Tips, which are about the same as the Hornady's but my Colt just prefers the Winchesters.
Right now, I'd hurry over to Sportsman's Guide and order some 10mm ammo, much of which is still showing "In Stock"... even the 60-round packs of Federal Hydra-shock. Other ammo sources might have it as well, but don't wait and ponder the choices. Beef up your ammo supply now and use the Glock as-is.
The .40 ammo is more plentiful overall, but also a LOT more popular, so you may be wasting time hoping to go in that direction.
