The intent of the 10mm Info Pages is to provide as much data as is possible, hopefully to de-bunk some of the silliness, untruths, and disinformation out there in an honest, truthful, and sensible manner as is possible on the ONE 10mm that performs as well as any non-magnum semi-automatic cartridge in firearms history.
Soon after the field agents started using the 10mm, complaints from agents about recoil and alleged breakage began to surface, and the stage was set for the end of the cartridge.
I have seen an interest in the 10mm however small that is promising.

 The 10mm Auto Cartridge   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
Once the FBI declared that the 10mm Auto was "the best law enforcement cartridge available" the 10mm became "THE" hot police cartridge and law enforcement agencies across the country started looking at it for their own needs.
The "new" 10mm Auto was added to the testing, but it was felt the recoil would be unmanagable for many agents and so the FBI Firearms Training Unit handloaded their own 10mm ammo using a 180gn JHP loaded to the same 950fps as the other two loads.
Or the 10mm can be pressed into double duty as a back-country gun where one may be forced to defend himself (or herself as the case may be) against either four or two-legged predators.

The F.B.I. had adopted the 10mm Auto as its service cartridge and it looked like big things were going to happen for the 10mm and so I figured I would just wait until something I really liked came along.
Even though the 10mm Auto cartridge survived the demise of the Bren Ten, it hasn't turned out to be the "ultimate" cartridge in regards to its popularity.
While it isn't specifically dedicated to the 10mm Auto, it's where fans of the EAA 10mm Witness hang out and a lot of good information on this gun can be found here.

10mm Auto requires a platform big enough to handle.45 ACP (since the cartridge overall length is about the same).
The 10mm is faster then the 45 in same bullet weights, has only.05" less diameter (not much if you all ask me) and has more downrange power then the 9mm, 357sig or most of the other cartraiges.

 CALIBERS -- 10mm Advocacy Article
With the 10mm, I have chronographed fully 6 loads (and there are more out there!) in four different bullet weights that BEAT the energy levels of the 165gr.45 ACP loads by a minimum of 20 foot pounds of energy each: some by substantially more.
I don’t down load my 10mm much, but this is one aspect of the cartridge that must be factored in to the argument for the 10mm over the.45 ACP.
The 10mm “lite” or what I like to call the –p, is nothing more than the ballistic equivalent of a.40 SandW, another good cartridge, to be sure.

Because the 10mm auto has alot worse kick than a.45 acp, and is similar in balisticaly to the.41 remington magnum.
This cartridge is a lengthened 10mm Auto and is loaded to pressure levels similar to the.44 Magnum for use in the IAI handguns.

 10mm Auto   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
Introduced in 1983 in the ill fated Bren Ten autoloading pistol, the 10mm Auto has quickly become one of the most successful cartridges developed during this century.
During 1990, the 10mm Auto gained even more credibility as a self defense cartridge when the FBI abandoned the 9mm Parabellum and officially adopted the larger caliber.
When the 150 and 155 grain bullets are down loaded to 1200 fps, the 10mm becomes an excellent cartridge for USPSA/IPSC competition with about the same level of recoil as that of the.38 Super.

 THR - The Real History of the 10MM and .40 S&W
The basic idea was to duplicate the ballistics of the 10mm FBI load (the 10mm Lite) in a cartridge that would feed in medium frame autoloaders designed for the popular 9x19.
SandW realized that for police or self-defense purposes the large powder capacity of the 10mm Auto was wasted, and the drawbacks of a large frame pistol (required for the 10mm) could be avoided if the new cartridge could be made small enough to work in 9mm pistols.
You are right, the 10mm is preferable for someone who shoots and is unaffected by recoil, but for the average LE type who is not a firearms enthusiast, it is a good compromise round.

 10mm Tech Notes
Fortunately, Tripp Research will soon be offering some promising 8 and 10 round magazines for the 10mm 1911 in the next month or so, and Metalform will be offering a new 10 round magazine at about the same time that may be worth a look.
However, compared to other calibers, 10mm is well suited to ported firearms, since it operates at high enough pressures for porting's effects to be at least somewhat noticeable.
Don Williams made similar suggestions to Dane's on 1911forum.com concerning 10mm recoil spring weights, commented on (positive and negative) effects of using a heavier mainspring, and the advantages of the EGW firing pin stop.

 The Glock FAQ [Cartridge Information]
The 10mm was a cartridge that evolved from several wildcats, including the 40 G&A and "The Centimeter".
However, this was a great thing for the 10mm cartridge, because, for the first time, other than the Bren Ten, there was a gun designed specifically for the 10mm, and not a 45ACP gun re-engineered into a 10mm.
In addition, since the 10mm bore is smaller, but the outside diameter of the barrel is the same, the 10mm barrel is heavier than the 45 ACP barrel, making the 10mm barrel heavier.

 10mm Auto   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
Norma brought the 10mm Automatic cartridge to life in 1983, for the Bren 10 pistol.
The demand for this cartridge and a gun to shoot it was created by the efforts of various vocal gun writers and proponents of big bore pistol cartridges, in much the same fashion as they had whipped up demand for the earlier.41 Magnum revolver cartridge.
Reloading for the 10mm Auto is straight forward, and the 10mm uses the same.400" bullets as the.40 S&W. The popularity of the latter cartridge insures a decent selection of bullets.

There are some magazines and annuals that actually feature the Bren or some other 10mm firearm on their cover, but most articles are burried inside with little or no mention of it on the front.

At the time of the request for this new caliber, the FBI was hot on this cartridge, since the.40 Smith and Wesson had not yet been invented.
The advent of the UMP has supplanted the market for these guns, and it will be available at least in.40 caliber in addition to.45 but probably not 10mm, due to the direction of the market away from this caliber.
This idea was abandoned on the 10mm and.40 cal guns, but remains on the G36 magazines.

Designed especially for the American Law Enforcement user, the MP5/10 is chambered for the potent 10mm Auto cartridge.
The 10mm Auto cartridge provides up to twice the muzzle energy of the standard 9mm parabellum NATO cartridge, and still is easily controllable due to the unique roller-locked bolt system employed throughout the HK line of weapons.
The ability of the roller-locked bolt system to reduce the peak recoil impulse of the 10mm Auto cartridge translates into a very controllable, low recoiling weapon weighing less than 6-1/2 pounds.
