Have loaded 1000 rds for use in my LC Carbine and Thompson 1927A1. Feeds and fires perfectly in both with better than acceptable accuracy. My new go-to bullet for fun plinking.
I’ve been reloading 147 and 158 grain for a long time for my subsonic loads but recently discovered I can make 115 grain subsonics that cycle in semi automatics. These do t drop as soon because they are much lighter,…
Loaded up my first batch of these 185 grn FN and really like them. They feed just fine in all my guns and have amazing accuracy, ragged holes at 7 & 15 yds. Only reloading note, I had to seat…
When it comes to performance and reliability, 10mm bullets and .40 S&W bullets stand out as two of the most effective handgun calibers. The 10mm Auto, introduced in 1983, became known for its higher muzzle velocity, powerful terminal ballistics, and magnum level stopping power. Recoil was more than some shooters preferred, which led Smith & Wesson and Winchester to develop the .40 S&W cartridge in 1990. This smaller package with lighter recoil quickly gained popularity among law enforcement agencies and self-defense users.
At Berry’s Bullets, we manufacture superior plated bullets built for accuracy, dependability, and versatility. Whether you are reloading different bullets into practice ammunition, tailoring grain weights for competition, or preparing for personal protection, our 10mm and .40 caliber bullet collection delivers consistent results.
| Feature | 10mm Auto | .40 S&W |
|---|---|---|
| Size | Bullet diameter: .401″, neck .423″, base/rim .425″, case length .992″ | Bullet diameter: .401″, neck/base/rim .424″, overall length .850″ |
| Muzzle velocity | 1,200 to 1,400 fps, varies by grain and load | 950 to 1,200 fps, varies by grain and load |
| Stopping power | 550 to 700 ft-lbs, effective when loaded in hunting and defensive ammo | 350 to 500 ft-lbs, balances accuracy with lighter recoil |
| Terminal ballistics | Deep penetration and expansion with a hollow point or flat point; suited to larger targets | Reliable penetration and wound channels with a jacketed bullet or hollow point when loaded in self-defense ammo |
| Recoil | Substantial recoil, better managed with the right platform and setup | More manageable than 10mm but heavier than 9mm |
Performance varies depending on the bullet type, load configuration, and firearm barrel used.
Our plated bullet collection includes multiple profiles built for accuracy, reliability, and specific shooting purposes. Every grain projectile is offered in 155gr, 165gr, 180gr, 200gr, and 220gr weights.
Every Berry’s bullet starts as a pure lead core, swaged under high pressure so each core carries the same weight and density.
That core is then electroplated with copper. The plating bonds to the lead and fully encases it, which leaves no exposed lead at the range and far less fouling than a hard cast bullet leaves behind.
After plating, each bullet is re-struck in a die to bring it to a true .401 bullet diameter and exact overall length. Every bullet is then inspected for size, weight, and plating before it ships.
Because our plated bullets follow a pressure curve close to hard cast, use published load data for cast or a jacketed bullet at the same grain weight and profile. Start low and work up.
Check your reloading manual and confirm your load against the recommended maximum before loading at higher pressure.
When selecting 10mm bullets or 40 bullets for your reloading needs, Berry’s Bullets sets the standard through more than six decades of manufacturing. Every grain bullet we produce reflects our focus on accuracy, consistency, and performance, trusted by shooters across the United States.
From our facilities here at home, Berry’s controls the entire production process. Each core is swaged, electroplated with copper, and inspected for proper bullet diameter, weight consistency, and a clean finish. Unlike lead bullets left bare, our plating reduces lead exposure and barrel fouling. This level of quality control gives reloaders bullets that rival jacketed designs while staying affordable.
Whether you are loading a lighter bullet for target practice or heavier grain bullets for defense, Berry’s delivers the accuracy and reliability you need. When you choose Berry’s, you invest in American craftsmanship and a trusted partner for every caliber you reload.
