A few years ago I wrote an article comparing the recoil and subsonic capability of the.45 ACP and 10mm handguns. This article was extremely popular in the gun community. The two handguns are similar in size, weight, and advertised muzzle velocity. Below are the pros and con's of each handgun. It is important to take into consideration both the speed as well as the range of each handgun before making a purchase.
10mm recoil is akin to a 357 Magnum
The feeling of a 10mm Magnum is almost identical to that felt from a 357 Magnum. Both have similar amounts of muzzle power, although the 10mm has an edge in energy. The 357 Magnum, however, has a longer and more powerful bullet. It is important to note that there are some differences between these calibers.
Recoil is the biggest difference between both rifles. The recoil of a 10mm automatic rifle should be low. While the 357 Magnum offers a higher velocity, the 10mm has a lower one. Higher recoil levels will result in fewer shots. The smaller case capacity of the 10mm also limits its use for self-defense in cities.
Subsonic Vs. 45 ACP Vs. 10mm
Subsonic loads can be very similar in size, case capacity and performance. Your personal preferences will dictate which hunting rounds you prefer for concealed carry. The difference between the two types will help you decide which one to use. There is another difference between the 45 ACP rounds and the 10mm ones. Both can be ordered in single-shot and semiauto versions. Semi-auto actions are quieter.
Both cartridges are useful for hunting deer-size games, but the 10mm is ideal for self-defense. The 10mm is also an effective bear-defense weapon. Although this caliber is more powerful than the others, it can be handled by well-trained shooters. For beginners or to practice marksmanship skills you can opt for a 45 ACP.
Recoil is harder
Although both calibers produce the same amount of recoil the impact of the retort with the 10mm is louder. The latter produces a smaller muzzle flash that can be useful for acquiring targets. The recoil energy for the 45mm round and the 10mm round is similar, as well as the muzzle flip and kick.
The difference in recoil between a 10mm revolver and a 45mm revolver are minimal when compared to the differences between their flange lengths. At 50 yards the difference between the revolvers is 0.3 in. and at 100 yards it's 1.1 in. This difference, however, is not enough to distinguish the two revolvers.
Handguns designed for.45 ACP are lighter and can hold fewer rounds
The difference between handguns made for.45 ACP (or.45 Super) is that the former uses an older bullet. Likewise, the 45 super uses a thicker casing and a higher pressure powder to achieve a much higher velocity. Although this reduces the number of rounds that can be carried, the 45 super's bullet is much more powerful and can fly faster than an average bullet. This makes it better for home defense.
This difference is not significant. General John T. Thompson preferred the.45 ACP pistol because it was a true "man-stopper". He had previously tried the.38 Long Colt pistol but that didn't impress him in the Philippine-American War. The.45 ACP cartridge has a lower usage rate than the.38 Long Colt. It is still used by most NATO military units.
