The only 10mm I've fired was in a full sized stainless S&W revolver so IDK how the recoil might be in a semi auto, or if mag capacity is an issue for you.

Thanks for the advice. Well the good old 45 apc was not on my list in the first place but after checking the ammo availability of the 357 sig and the 10mm Auto again and again, getting a .45 would be very tempting. With the Standard .45 I cannot get in Magnum territory in the semi Auto pistol realm, which was the reason why I got intersted in the 357 sig or the 10mm Auto in the first place. But the 45 apc would have many benefits. for sure. Ammo is quite cheap and easily available.
I can get man FMJ rounds for target Shooting and even some decent self defense rounds like the Gold dot, and also some classic jhp rounds from Remington at a good Price.
If i get a .45 pistol that can be adjusted to use 45 super rounds I can still get in the Magnum realm in the future if i start learning reloading.
