I wonder how the 9x25 would do.

Talk about Juvenile.

Oh, so you DIDN'T block me, or did you unblock me? I KNEW you would think Alwaysshootin said something about you. That's hilarious. ACTUALLY, he was talking to me about converting my G21SF to a G20 long slide. Good job, buddy.

If you could find a 9mm bullet to hold together at hot 9x25Dillon velocities, I bet it would be pretty good. I still think the 10mm would have the edge for hunting just because of the heavier and larger bullets, but the Dillon would be a good auto pistol choice, too.

Ah just let it go. Fedor is just making sure everyone here knows where his panties are!

Let's see, you start with a 10MM case, then neck it down, to accommodate, a lighter, smaller diameter bullet, that's screaming, right? Personally, I'll take a heavier, more than fast enough bullet, to go through and through for hunting whitetail. With the proper .40 bullet, there is no concern of whether the bullet will stay together either.

Any more 10pm stories!?

Have you seen the YouTube video of the guy taking down the hog with his G20? He was using a CorBon 135gr load. It's a Sierra 135gr JHP rated at 1400fps, and it dropped the hog QUICK. Imagine that bullet at 1700fps (I pushed some 135gr Nosler JHPs to a 10-shot average of 1734fps the other day). It would be nasty.

Here's the video:

10mm will get it done!!!

Chief Joseph · 08-20-2011, 07:38

I don't know, there were a few on the 10 mm where you saw the bullet go right through, you could see it hit behind. I don't see the "clear" win for the 10 mm. I still see shot placement as the "win". Even with high power rifles and arrows, game still has to be tracked sometimes.

A huge ol' BUMP-SKI for this one ...

Actually the increase in velosity begins to drop off after 6 inches. Check out this site: http://www.ballisticsbytheinch.com/10mm.html

Who here would use a .45acp to hunt deer or hogs?

I would not. However back during the great depression...the 1930s one, my grandfather routinely killed deer with a .22lr.

Would a 45 kill a deer? Yes. Would I use it? No. Truth is I mostly use my bow nowdays.

misfit356tsw · 10-03-2011, 10:58

If I were hungry enough I would hunt with anything I could get my hands on. If the American Indians were able to hunt successfully with little flint arrowheads I think a .45 or 10mm would be a better choice.

kimber6 · 10-03-2011, 22:37

Ugh I want one!!

Boba Debt · 10-04-2011, 08:06

If anyone is interested in a way to convert their G21 or G21sf, I have a complete G20 Slide Assembly with Night Sights and an optional magazine listed in the Classifieds section: http://glocktalk.com/classifieds/sho...&ppuser=179998

The finish in like new condition and the barrel has a super low round count

I'm selling it to help pay for my long slide project - http://glocktalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1373260

Thanks

I took my Glock 20 with the (Glock) six inch hunting barrel deer hunting for two years with Cor-Bon 180 grain bonded soft points. First year, nada. Second year - I was at table top mountain in Arizona with a buch of (well, lets call them unenlightened) people. I kept getting harrassed about "handgun" hunting, even though you CAN'T find a handgun with more rounds that has the same energy level of the 10mm. So, long story short, I'm slinking around the hills looking at the south end of a North bound buck. Keeps messing with me, letting me get within about 150 yards. I told myself I WOULD NOT shoot anything further than 100 yards with the Glock. Last day of the season, I kid you not - same buck walked within 50 yards of camp as I'm getting dressed for hunting - I KNOW it was him tasking me. Same game, I stalk, he moves. Finally, I give up and start packing it all in, drive down the mountain (focus on driving as I will fall off the mountain and kill myself). So, I come around the mountain onto (finally) flat dirt (no road) and can breath again when, this buck runs over from somewhere and stops about 20 yards in front of my truck. Needless to say, out comes the Glock, (get out of truck first) ease it out, get a bead on his front chest and BAM! Some other gun with a rifle has shot him. Guy says he never saw my truck or me taking a bead on him. Maybe. Anyway, bet you thought I was going to end up shooting that buck didn't you? True story. If it wasn't, I would have ended up shooting that buck with the 10mm. Oh well, there's always pig season.

I'm glad you are OK.
