I’ve been getting my 10mm ammo from Mackay Sagebrush (Lost River Ammunition Company) for the last few years. Recently I purchased some 200 grain hard cast from him, below is a target that I shot with my Springfield XDM Elite with a Holosun 407C at 50 yards. Shooting from sand bags. I’m very pleased.

Lonster!
That is some NICE shooting.
BTW, this next week I will have some more back on the web store. It has been a bit of a struggle getting some type of brass in stock, as I am at the mercy of suppliers. They do them in runs and it may be a while between runs.
How do you like the XD?
It seems like it is one of those guns that gets overlooked but is actually a very solid performer in the larger calibers, such as .45 and 10mm.

I have been shooting a G20 for the past 15+ years and never thought that I would ever consider another brand. However, I really like this XD. The trigger is sooooo much better than the Glock trigger, haven’t had a single hiccup with feeding, ejecting, etc. It’s looking like my G20 may be second string this fall.

I like my G20, it shoots 200 grain bullets over 13 grains of AA #9 reasonably well. As it is a gen 4 I have been thinking about a pistol with an optics cut. That SA looks pretty good! From my research it appears to be on average a more accurate pistol than most.

I can't say enough good about my XDME 10mm. One of the easiest to shoot accurately pistols I've ever tried. And still not a single hiccup.
Lonster - nice shooting, and thanks for posting. I need to order some of that load.

Thanks guys.
I'll be honest, I've always been a Glock "fanboy" since purchasing my first one back in 1990 or 1991.
This Springfield is NICE. I did do TONS of research before purchasing it. Additionally, I just purchased a new Glock Gen 5 G20 MOS back in January. The new Glock is super nice and shoots really well BUT the trigger on the Springfield is much better.
As for the ammo, You can't beat it! Lost River Ammunition is all that I use to hunt whitetails and for protection from these southern meth-monsters.

I've got the same setup, minus grip mod, but I'm not that accurate with it yet.

Paul it’s easily more than 3 and have not noticed any problems. I am using brass from Sig loaded ammo, and I just resize, trim with Lee trimmer, and reload. I lose them at the range and resupply them with cases from fired ammo from Sig. I need to load up a bunch more as I shot a lot up last range session. I have really enjoyed owning the Glock 20 and shoot it better than I should be able too.

Nothing wrong with the 40, just believe I'd be happier with smaller dimensions of a 20.
