Big and Bad vs. Short and Accurate could easily sum up the argument between the 10mm and the .40 S&W rounds. A lot of focus is on the 180-grain 10 mm which has decent stats – 1,300 feet/second and 708 ft-lbf in comparison to the .40 S&W with 200 grains delivers velocity in the 1050 feet/second range and 490 lb-lbf. Clearly, the 10mm is more powerful, but that power comes at a cost – The recoil is huge and that can play with accuracy, especially in the second or third shot with quickfire situations.

Which is better the 10mm or the .357 round? This is a question we hear a lot. The answer might surprise you. Neither is better. They are each just slightly different. Those differences give one strength over the other as the circumstance changes and the stronger one is not always the same round.

How far can a bullet travel? How you answer that question depends on the bullet in question. For example, a .22 caliber bullet can travel around 1 mile to 1 1/2 miles. Some bullets, such as a 9 mm may travel up to three miles. Shot travels a shorter distance between 200 and 600 yards.

Many people ask us, “what is the best type of bullet to buy.” Understandably, it gets confusing, especially if you are new to guns and shooting. There are so many different types of bullets available, and since some are not always legal to own, it is important to understand the different types of bullets available.

Why compare a rifle round to a pistol round? It makes more sense than you may think. The debate between 300 Blackout and 9mm is focused on their use in submachine guns (SMGs). While 9mm excels in close-range scenarios with low recoil and affordability, the 300 Blackout (BLK) offers greater versatility, transitioning from quiet subsonic loads for CQB (Close Quarters Battle) to powerful supersonic loads for greater distances.
