How about a revolver? The S&W 610 is a great gun, so are the Ruger GP-100, Super Redhawk and Super Blackhawks in 10mm. If you're feeling really exotic, I've seen Chiappa Rhinos converted to 10mm Mag.

The up side to the revolvers is that you can load them to a longer OAL and see a significant performance increase over anything you'll get in a semi-auto. You get the added bonus of being able to run any ammo you want without having to worry about swapping out recoil springs.

 I've been pondering a 10mm for a woods carry also-  haven't handled a Dan Wesson Bruin or Kodiak in Bronze 10mm yet but they sure look nice.

If you're going to go with a revolver I'd probably scrap the 10mm and go 44mag, 480, or similar.

For something high capacity, the 10mm in G20 or the XDM are probably your two best options. 

If you are looking for something with more power than a 10mm but still in a semi auto look into doing a 460 Rowland kit on a G21 or XDM 45.  They make 460 Rowland conversion kits for a variety of different guns.  You get 44mag horsepower in a semi auto.

Get a grip man! I mean a good feeling grip. XDM is far more comfortable than holding a brick. (The Glocks.) :chuckle:

Bob Serva ( Fusion owner and previous owner of Dan Wesson ) himself  built them originally.  Then when we decided to have them milled for the RMRs we sent them back to Fusion and his kid milled them .
