Model 10 question

[AZ Mark]

When did Model 10s begin to be rated to shoot +P loads?

[oldafsp]

Any Model 10 (numbered) is considered safe to shoot +P rounds in if it is in
good mechanical condition.

Any of the major ammunition makers have tables on their websites giving the
ballistics of their +P ammo.

All US made ammunition is loaded to SAMMI specs.

If you want something a little hotter try Buffalo Bore. +P rounds from them are pretty hot but still within tolerance.

Have fun
