About
The .10mm Auto Ammo is a powerful semi-automatic cartridge for pistols designed and introduced to the markets in 1983. Although being selected by the FBI in 1989, it was decommissioned because of the heavy recoil, which made the cartridge unsuitable for training average agents and police officers. Also, the chamber of the pistols for the .10mm Auto Ammo was too large for individuals with small hands. A former cartridge design was powered up, which resulted in a very powerful bullet that can retain a flat trajectory and high energy of a magnum cartridge for revolvers in a short, versatile rimless bullet for a semi-automatic pistol. The .10mm Auto Ammo produces a slightly higher energy level than the .357 Magnum Ammo at the maximum potential. The overall length of the .10mm Auto Ammo is 32mm, and the bullet diameter is 10.17mm. The 155-grain bullet variant of the .10mm Auto Ammo can travel at a velocity of 1,500 feet per second and creates an energy level of 775 ft.lbf.

About
The .30 Carbine Ammo is a rimless cartridge that was introduced into the markets in 1942. The basic design of the .30 Carbine Ammo is based on the much older .32 Winchester Self Loading Ammo of 1906. The .30 Carbine Ammo uses a light casing and improved gunpowder. These additions resulted in the .30 Carbine Ammo delivering 41% higher muzzle velocity and 27% more impact energy. The US military demanded a bullet greater than .27 Caliber Ammo and had an effective range of at least 300 yards. All of these strict conditions were met by the .30 Carbine Ammo. Other than rifles, this bullet has also been chambered in several handguns and produced good results. The overall length of the .30 Carbine Ammo is 42.7mm, while the bullet diameter measures 7.8mm. The .30 Carbine Ammo can travel at a velocity of 1,990 feet per second while producing an energy level of 967 ft.lbf.Â
Manufacturer
Upon the strict requests by the US military, Winchester's Edwin Pugsley designed and developed the .30 Carbine Ammo in 1942. Due to its usability, the .30 Carbine Ammo is still manufactured today.Â
Uses
The .30 Carbine Ammo was created mainly for wars and to serve the military. However, this bullet is extremely popular among hunters as well.
