A 155 gr slug is not normally thought of as a hunting load in 10mm.......but your results speak for themselves.

Thanks.
I had tested two different bullets through 4 layer denim into water filled gallon jugs.
The 155 XTP penetrated into the 4th jug with about .65 expansion
My 180 Gold Dot penetrated to the front of the 4th jug, cracked it, expansion from .75 - .80 (tested it twice)
If I get another low odds (of seeing one in daylight) opportunity for another deer I'm using the 180 Gold Dot
