Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Springfield Armory 10mm TRP designed for?

How does the 10mm cartridge relate to the .40 S&W?

The 10mm's initial high recoil led to 'down-loading' the round, which eventually resulted in the development of the .40 S&W cartridge as a less powerful alternative.

Why is the 10mm cartridge relevant today?

Despite the popularity of 9mm, fueled by modern ammunition technology, there remains a gap for the full-power 10mm, especially for applications demanding greater ballistic performance.
