10mm gelatin test: Reeds' 165 gr and 180 gr Golden Saber
Link for phones
Reed's 180 gr & 165 gr Golden Saber fired from 4.5" barrel EAA Witness through four layers of denim into calibrated 10% gelatin.
BB: 585.5 fps, 3.6"
180 gr results:
Impact velocity: ~1,211 fps
Penetration: 14.4"
Retained weight: 179.6 gr
Max expansion: 1.058"
Min expansion: 0.548"
Neck: 0.5"
TSC: 1.5" x 7"
165 gr results:
Impact velocity: 1,329 fps
Penetration: over 14.7"
Retained weight: 164.6 gr
Max expansion: 0.770"
Min expansion: 0.586"
Neck: 0.4"
TSC: 1" x 8"
I did not get a velocity reading from the 180 gr shot so the velocity figure is from Intercooler's 10mm master sheet found here.

180 gr

I'm actually impressed they were able to obtain a pistol chambered in 10mm to conduct the test.
Are there three or four models on the market now? Regardless of performance, that speaks volumes.

Howdy,
As a 10mm owner I wonder when the 9mm crowd with chime in and claim their "Wonder 9" is ALMOST as good as a 10mm.
