- Mod'd my S&W 610 to take 40S&W, 10mm Auto, and now 10mm Magnum, a bit of a wildcat round that is comparable to the Remington 41 Magnum. I had the cylinder reamed out to accept the 10mm magnum cartridge, and now the smaller rounds can be used with moon clips -- same with the Magnum -- or the 10mm Magnum can be used without the moon clips. This platform feels like it's meant to shoot something this stout... it just feels right. Will be sharing homebrew ammo as I get around to making it. In the meantime, I'm using some very fine rounds from a bygone company called Maine Cartridge Company Inc. They did a pretty nice job with these, although they are FMJ so really only meant for plinking. The good part about it, is the brass is very good 10mm Magnum Starline, which is heavy duty and will serve me well with reloads. Sadly, new brass is not a priority for Starline right now; a backordered product that could remain so for a long time.
Who did the conversion to 10mm if you don't mind me asking. That sounds like that would be a fantastic option. You have 40 S&W, 10mm, and 10mm Mag that's a lot of versatility. Sounds awesome.
A fine smith in OH named Andy Horvath. Some other comments for this vid has more on this.
Even though it is conversted to 10 mm Magnum can you still shot 40 S&W??
Yes. I actually shoot 40s as much as 10mm Mag from her. All via moon clips.
Yep.
Uhhh.....you can get 10mm mag rounds from Double Tap.
I had my S&W 10mm. converted to 10mm Magnum years ago and have at keast 400 rounds of the stuff.
Ya, I think I mention that in another vid. Glad they still offer it up.
Did he really Smith & Weston?
i want it in m1 carbine or ar carbine upper
No shooting, no chronograph, whats the point of this video?
Who mod’d your cylinder, I have a Blackhawk I’d like to try this with my 40/10mm convertible, thanks
A fine smith named Andy Horvath. He came highly recommended from some equally fine smiths. He is old school; does business over the phone and snail-mail. I will definately be using him again for anything revolver related. Best of luck with your mod.
@@maudesmods thanks a bunch, would you say it’s on par with the 41 magnum?
@@DR676767 NP. My research has me to believe that it's on par with 41, but with better bullet selection. Win Win.
@@maudesmods did you go the cheapest route of 250 or so for the reaming of the cylinder or the full deal around 475? , I’m thinking cheaper because I’m not really going to be hunting with it but I still want to do it
@@DR676767 I only got done what I needed. The cheaper. Did the more expensive option involve the forcing cone or anything like that? Curious what else could be done... trigger job? I had some trigger work done previously from another smith. Which was very helpful. But you don't have a Smith & Wesson...
I got one also
