Three potential deer-hunting 10mm rounds were chosen with help from the folks at Hornady and Federal: Hornady Custom 180-grain XTP, Hornady Critical Duty 17-grain Flex Lock, and Federal's Trophy Bonded 180-grain JSP.Most handgun hunters have traditionally opted for stout revolvers chambered in 44 Rem. loads suitable for defense against dangerous game. works to tame the stout recoil produced by hunting-grade.

Those who insist on a 10mm for defense in urban zones should stick to the FBI load. Although, they can serve a dual-purpose role in rural areas. Full-power loads are not a good self-defense option in most cases given their excessive penetration. The 10mm is the better choice here for hunting and bear defense.
