I normally use HS-6 for 10mm, but... I just got the new Hodgson Basic Reloaders Manual -- 2001 Edition. It lists two new loads for 10mm with Longshot Powder. The 200 grain HDY FMJ MAX LOAD is listed as 8.2 grains of Longshot with a velocity of 1196 ft./sec. at a pressure of 23,900 PSI, both numbers are significantly better than any of their other powders. I am interested in trying this load but want to know if anyone has tried this type of load yet? BTW I called Hodgson and the pressure and velocity are not a misprint.
