I've picked up a lot of 10mm brass, and it sure looks impressive.
go back a page and read the stuff on the links about the FBI and Miami shoot-out. The 10mm is a really stout round, about 41 mag stout. The 40 S&W is nothing more than a shortened 10mm round and less powder.

Most of the 1911 frames in 10mm get beat up fast. The one 10mm that seems to be able to take a high round count and still go is the Glock 20.

As for stopping power, yep, it's definately gonna stop them, but you better hold on when you pull the trigger.
