New S&W M&P 10mm range report

[DonD]

Shot 100 rd through the new 10mm this AM. Flawless except for one round which failed to feed. It shot well for me.

About 55 rounds of mild generic American Eagle.

About 10 rds of Underwood 180gr

35 rds of handloads that ran 645 ft lbs out of the SR 1911.

You know you're shooting a serious handgun but by no means harsh.

Shot 30 rounds out of my Ruger MAX-9 with generic Federal FMJ ammo. Felt like a pop gun by comparison but that ammo is fairly lame.

Very pleased. Don

Do you have the 4" or 4.625" bbl.? I recently broke in my new M&P 10mm 2.0 (4.625"), and it fed and shot flawlessly. I shot Federal 180g FMJ, which is supposedly a relatively mild round. Looks like you shot a few Underwoods- those are renowned as fairly hot rounds. I had no issues with the 10mm, and it was very controllable and fun to shoot (7 yards to 25 yards). Now it's time to take some JHPs (Hornady, Federal, or PMC) to the range and check them out.

I'm a power junkie so I also have the 4.6" barreled 10mm. Don

Congrats on your new 4.6 glad it functions well.
I have had no issues with mine as well. I really like these pistols.
