I'm thinking about using a g29 as a car gun. This would be just something in the trunk in case the Miami riots start up again or I break down on the side of the road. This would be in addition to my normal carry gun and normal car flashlight. So 3 mags, a small flashlight and a g29 (with night sights and IWB holster) in a discrete carry case tucked away in the trunk.
The problem that I'm having is that 10mm self defense ammo is pretty limited. It's hard to tell what is hunting ammo and what is legit carry ammo for a compact carry gun. Hornady has a few choices with their 180 XTP and 175 FTX but I'm not sure those are the right choices. I'm not into Underwood or Buffalo Bore or similar as those don't seem like good fodder for a 29.
Anybody have something that they think is a really good choice? I can hand load some great 10mm loads but I'd rather save that for hurricane Devastator or whatever. I can always just buy a 40 S&W barrel for the 29 and then the choices really open up. I like the large size grip of the 29 and I'd like to use 10mm but 40 would be just fine too.
