Scroll down to the very bottom. The .40 Super is a necked down .45 Super casing. Other information is also mentioned.

The .40 Super case has the head dimensions of a .45, but the (longer) case length of 10mm.

Ok, I'm guessing the site got that info wrong then. It happens.

It's a very oddball caliber. A buddy of mine was interested in it for a while, got a barrel for his Glock, and worked closely enough with Triton that they sent him some hundreds of rounds of their ammo for testing. I recall that feeding was a problem. I have one of the rounds on my ammo board.

do you know where he got the barrel and what gun he put it in?

The gun was a Glock, but I'll have to ask about the barrel.
