I am looking for any "tried and true" 10mm loads using 200 grain bullets. (I do have manuals and have printed off data from powder manufacture's web sites.)

So, I am looking for the voice of wisdom and experience here, anybody else out there love the 10mm with a good size bullet weight and load for it?

This is my first foray into pistol cartridge reloading. I have been reloading rifle for a bit, and am ready to start with my handgun cartridges, starting with the 10mm.

I was recommended Hodgdon Universal at around 5.5 grains starting point, CCI Large Pistol primers, and Hornady 200 grain HPXTPs any thoughts? (I also noticed that on Hodgdon's site that they did not list the Hornady HPXTP only the FMJ. Would there be any difference in the loading?)

Thanks in advance!
