Yes, I've dispatched trapped pigs with my G20 and G29 in 10mm. It makes a great handgun for deer and pigs. I've only killed rabbits so far with the G40, which is a fabulous pistol. It has good penetration, and hits much harder than a 45. I use the stock barrel. I bought a Lone Wolf barrel for both my G20 and G29. It made the pistol a little more accurate, but it comes at a cost. The chamber is much tighter than the factory barrel is. This tight chamber caused 2 issues. 1- it raised my pressures in my ammo to where they were now a semi-hot load. It caused a little more pressure than what I would like. But it did gain some good speed, though. 2- the tighter chamber did not feed/chamber 100%. I had several rounds that hung up. I didn't like this, so I went back to the factory barrel. (If you want my Lone Wolf barrel, let me know.)

Ammo, I load all the available bullets, but the 180 and 200 grain Hornady XTP shot the best. The 200 grain XTP is what I carry at the deer lease, and it's awesome on pigs. The only reason I load 10mm Auto ammo is because of the lack of good ammo options on the market. A lot of factory ammo is watered down 40 cal. Other ammo is 10mm +P ammo, and is way too hot for the Glocks. I load mine right in the sweet spot at normal max pressures for the 10mm, where the Glocks shoot very well.

Can you take turkey with a pistol in the Spring? I always thought you had to use a shotgun.

Per TPWD

Shotguns are the only legal firearm that may be used to hunt Eastern turkey during the spring Eastern turkey season (see County Listing). Rifles and handguns may not be used to hunt Eastern turkey.


Rios may be hunted with other lawful firearms during the appropriate season.

Why shoot .40 out of the 20?
