So, I've been reading and lookin at other sites for info on the 400, but I can't find anything substantial on it. Who here has one, and what do you think? Is it worth the barrel to convert my gun?

So, I've been reading and lookin at other sites for info on the 400, but I can't find anything substantial on it. Who here has one, and what do you think? Is it worth the barrel to convert my gun?
Had one 10 years ago....expensive to shoot, still in a .45 frame= why not keep the .45 ACP?
Try a 10mm. Can be loaded hot. 10mm is exotic enough, 400 carbon is much more of a PITA to get. I've learned my lesson, no more bottle neck cartridges. Tougher to hand load not as much neck to grip the bullet. I bought a 40 cal barrel for my 357sig. 10mm get you more rounds too.
Mediocre solution to a nonexistant problem. If you like .40 bullets get a .40 S&W or a 10mm.
This. Its a solution without a problem.Quote:

Mainly just wondering with all I have read. With my USP, I found a barrel that is a drop in replacement, no extra crap.Quote:

I asked because it's not made up. I don't want a 10mm for the reasons in which I stated, and I don't care for the 40. I was wanting to know what people that have owned or shot the 400 thougth about them. That's why I asked, I didn't want discussion of other rounds. The 40 is weak, and the 10mm is brutal to guns which leaves the 400 as the best of both worlds. Now I want to know what people think about them that have shot, or owned one. That's all.Quote:

You say you don't "like" the .40 S&W but why would you "like" a .400 Corbon? Its more difficult to reload, more expensive and does nothing better.
Well again like stated in my last post, this wasn't supposed to be a "well what about this, or that" thread, I was asking for those who had a 400 to give me their opinion on it. Now, your statement is kinda, I'll be nice and just say ignorant. That would be like saying that the 22 mag, 22 long, and 22 short, are the same thing, sorry, the 22 mag, and long don't do anything better than the short... If you don't know what you're talking about, I'd refrain from talking.Quote:
