GOOD Budget 10mm AMMO?....AAC 180 Grain XTP Self-Defense Ammo Ballistic Gel Test!

[@dennispiert5742]

Another benefit with AAC is that they aren’t contracted by the government (at least not to my knowledge). Being completely reliant on the commercial side means our pathetic politicians can’t influence them or impact production which maintains a dependable supply. I hope to see AAC grow grow grow… imma supporting them.

[@kineticenergy1085]

Yup! Made 2 videos of 10mm and .40 AAC myself. It’s perfect in price, velocity, and their FMJ and XTP!😎👍🏽

I just bought 1000 rds of 5.56 55 gr. The AAC 77 gr (either sierra or housemade projectiles) has been very awesome for the money

That's the thing, AAC ammo doesn't pretend to get higher numbers. They don't use a 16 inch barrel and use those numbers. You get what you get and it works and it's reasonably priced. I've been buying their 115 gr 9mm xtp for a while now. It's hard to find so I picked up some Winchester white box jhp's recently, but AAC is my favorite ammunition company right now.

[@jmac2465]

They tried to rip me off too. Ordered 6 boxes of ammo and they shipped 5. Emailed them and two weeks later I had to call them back to get an answer. They wanted pictures of the original packaging. I had already shot the ammo and threw away the trash, but I sent them the packaging slip. They said too bad, without pictures of the original packaging I was SOL. I told them that I was a Veteran and they would be stealing from one. Their response was, “I don’t care. No pictures, no refund!” I was shocked. I contacted the BBB, filed a complaint and called my bank and filed a dispute for 1 box of ammo, not the whole order. It was $28. They blocked my account. I called them again and asked why. They said that I violated their policy customer guidelines because I filed a dispute and got my money back. I know a few people have had this issue and it is disappointing because I like their products. It is good stuff.

[@3rdpig]

Pretty decent performance for a budget round. Another 100 FPS might have fragmented it. Good to see the G29 on the channel, I carried one for years and still pop it on my belt now and again.

[@ToolsandTargets]

Yessir. Not bad for cheap stuff.😎👍

[@timsmith5837]

I push the same XTP to 1320 fps without having it fragment. It stays together well.

[@xxdizannyxx]

Don't think it's anywhere near fragmenting.

[@cgsimons1187]

I imagine that meaningful fragmentation may take place if it gets somewhere between 1300 - 1400 fps. Possibly a 6" barrel like a G40 or 1911 long slide might get it there.

[@Bhakhanda1369]

I handload 180gn XTP to 1400fps using 17gns lil gun and 6.61” lone wolf compensated barrel. This is a great example of what it does downrange at impact area. The XTP seems to hold together but it does peel back a ways.

In my 5" 1911 Kimber in 10mm, the 180gr XTP Hornady Custom factory load is moving at 1220fps. It expands and pentrates well. So if you can get the AAC load to go that fast, it is probably optimum for that bullet. In my testing, I got the same results you did. Bottom line, it would make a very dependable self defence round.

.40 sw 180gr xtp with 8gr of Longshot (book max but below saami max) runs 1214fps out of my p226 .40 with 4.4" barrel. 1240 out of my G35. Pushing the xtp much faster only causes fragmentation so no need for more speed.

[@tonycolca2241]

Sometimes 100 to 200 fps slower ammo actually penetrates a little better maybe cause it expands a little less

[@dennistv598]

Actually no the higher the grain the deeper the penetration since it is a heavy bullet faster bullet doesn’t mean always faster but heavier grain bullet are loud and heavy recoil compare to less grain bullet also for self defense u want to have less grain for better follow up shots and better recoil management for big games high grain would be ideal

[@scarifrougeone7225]

Another good test and commentary in the books. It is really good to see the AAC perform really well. Thinking about a S&W performance center 10mm. Good to see the AAC perform better than others and is priced pretty good as well. Thanks a bunch for doing the extra barrel lengths as well. I think you did by getting the extra Tool. Thanks for sharing and be safe. ⭐️⭐️🇺🇸⭐️⭐️

[@johncoleman2495]

I'm impressed! I went and looked at some pricing and that's a lot of performance for the price! While I have been bitching for years about the weak 10mm available, this may not be full power but it's better than a lot of stuff costing double and is loaded with an excellent bullet. Not only is it a good bullet but it's going fast enough to work as designed! Thanks again for the good work Tools! On a side note I guessed 60-70 fps slower in the model 29 because that's the difference I see from a 5"1911 to a 4.25" commander 😉

Very good performance! AAC might start making a +p version. I wouldn’t mind to have a +p version in 9 mm. Love seeing some good performance after those pitiful 38 special underwood’s!👍🏻

[@johnw4999]

With 10mm Auto, ammunition is made in two general categories: 10mm Lite and 10mm Norma Spec (the original loadings designed specifically to stop violent human threats). Because LE personnel are generally not shooters, they couldn’t handle the heavier recoiling norma spec, thus the lite was developed and ended up in the .40 S&W (trying to keep the message brief, lol). Also, early 10mm guns were breaking… anyway, the only companies I believe making norma spec ammunition are Underwood, Buffalo Bore and Double Tap. Other companies are teetering on it with 180s advertised at 1,250, but that’s probably from a 6-inch (or longer) barrel. IMHO, 180s should be traveling 1,300-1,350 fps. 200s at 1,250 - 1,300 fps. and 165s at 1,400fps … from 5-inch barrels. I like to see Norma spec velocities from a 5-inch barrel. That was the barrel length on the Bren Ten. With that, I accept the normal loss in velocity when I carry/shoot my XTEN Comp with its 3.8 in barrel nestled in a comped 4.25 in slide.

[@wadelucero6461]

Finally a pass from descent price ammo and yes shame on the others but I do have high hopes for the grizzly ammo coming up

[@joeyphillips1181]

I sure didn't get a notification lol but that's about what I was expecting.. & at least it hit & exceeded advertised velocity with a 4.5".. down here in Alabama the sky has been falling since Nick Saban retired.. sorry haven't seen your last video yet but I'll watch it in a few.. good respectable budget load.. it's only about 100 fps slower than underwood with the same projectiles

[@joeyphillips1181]

Maybe 120 fps

[@joeyphillips1181]

You also have to consider you can get twice as much of that stuff than you can underwood and buffalo bore and only lose 100-130 fps

[@joeyphillips1181]

The Underwood & buffalo bore XTP's wrap around the base too so I think that projectile is really designed for that sorta speed.. it did just about as good as the DoubleTap did

[@joeyphillips1181]

Actually almost the same speed as the underwood 180 grain XTP's when you tested them.. but I've also seen them hit 1350 when other people tested the same load.. this AAC as far as your test goes is about 10-20 fps off from the underwood but other gel tests I have seen them go faster than in your test so maybe they have a consistency problem

[@Cr0wmagnum]

I get the reasons for downloading 10mm to reduce recoil and not having an over power load for carry. It's more than a .40 but not a real 10mm. I'm with you on the fact we need and want REAL 10mm! I still want something more for hunting and certain situations where I feel like I could use all the power and penetration I can get.

[@benjaminhuberty5888]

If it has a hollow point.... It should be full power. If it's fmj, I'd be happy with "average" power. I feel that to be true with 9mm too. I don't need +P fmj... But my hollow points better be packing heat!

That definitely was a pleasant surprise. Will have to pick some up in the near future.

[@johnw4999]

I appreciate you getting the G29. With that tool, along with the SA XDM Elite Compact and the new XTEN Comp, I believe the 3.8 is a new norm with compact 10mm barrels. IMHO, the 5-inch should be standard that velocity is listed. As long as 10mm is legit from a 5-inch barrel, I’m good with the loss in velocity from the 3.8. With that, I love my XTEN Comp! It manages recoil the best of my best millimeter collection, followed by the XTEN.

[@richardwaid4718]

You damm skippy that’s good stuff, great expansion , solid penetration, very low standard deviation and if you reload I’ll bet it’s very good brass because AAC/PSA is fabricating their own in house with 2022 or 2023 machines. Right now this stuff is priced at $.50 a rd. That’s a 1/3 of almost all the other defensive 10mm an in some cases a 1/4. Checked brass prices at Midway USA Starline is 30 cents a piece and the cheapest hollow points are 35 cents. Not to mention primer and powder. You can’t hand load close to this price so for two legged varmints this is a ridiculous value. Good thorough review T&T as usual!

It's well made ammo (in 9mm, 5.56 x 45, and .300 Blackout), reliable, feeds consistently, and Chronos at the stated velocity with very little variation. It's affordable. It's not the cheapest, but it costs less than comparable Winchester, Remington and Federal offerings. At my LGS, it's only a few cents more than PMC, and it's made in America. I buyAmerican made products whenever they are available. I'm not wealthy, or even well off. Retired on a fixed income, I buy boxes as I don't shop online, have a credit card, and volume/bulk buying is beyond my means.

A couple nights ago you didn't have one single video up on your channel. I'm not sure if it was "You Tube" messing with you, or if you were re-organizing your channel. But I'm glad to see that you're still here. I was mind blown by the "Underwood" 38 special video you did. I had always thought "Underwood" & "Buffalo Bore" were the best for a 38' special load. Now I'm wondering if "Buffalo Bore" is underloading their ammo too. I can't wait to see you get around to testing them again. The "Speer Gold Dot" 125gr +p looked to be a waste of money for a +P round. If I had it to do all over again, I would have bought the 605 instead of that 856'. 5 rounds of 357 are a lot more trust worthy out of a 2" barrel with a lot more ammo options too. Finding a powerful 38 special round isn't easy. What do we have? Buffalo Bore, Remington HTP, Federal Punch and Silver Tips? I'm not feeling so good about the "Underwood" anymore.

You should get a threaded barrel high point jxp 10 to test out please

[@hoffpbass]

Sweet. This ammo makes the G29 a nice carry option. Great find. Now you got me curious if Buffalo Bore can get that much more out of the shorter barrel 🤔 If anything, this AAC would make quality range ammo. And it helped prove my thought from yesterday -- that XTP rounds only work in the faster calibers. Great test, Tools. Stay warm. 🔥

I'm definitely gonna be seeing what I lose from BB and that 155 UW stuff.😎👊

[@bobg.8954]

Very nice performance, it's nice to have other options, appreciate ya T&T.

[@ToolsandTargets]

Yessir. The only reason this stuff didn't get the rant was the price/performance factor. It's weak for 10mm but at least they priced it accordingly.😎👊

I have been reloading my own 10mm for the range. I don't load it to the max as I do not want a case to blow out on multiple times fired brass due to the unsupported chamber. But I am not paying 10mm for a 40S&W power level. If I am buying full power 10mm I always look at the stats. I really didn't think an inch of barrel would have that big of a difference in your testing.

I carried a g29 in the combat zone of houston texas only gun I ever shot something with i used RBCD FRANGIBLEAMMO 77 grain bullet supposedly 2475 fps the bullet was a copper cup with powdered metal and a light coat of lead over the pm the thing i shot was dead before it hit the ground i was told these bullets were made for air marshalls i.e. complete energy dump in target supposedly if missed not supposed to punch a hole in the airplane.

Well, I was wondering what to get for practice ammo. I'll get Buffalo Bore for the spicy, duty type rounds but AAC's FMJ rounds might be a decent range practice since they've got the same 1200 FPS rating as these JHPs.

[@lutherpayne9957]

Now you need to get you a TNW Survival Carbine in 10mm. Nothing like having a pistol and carbine combo that not only uses the same ammo, but the same magazine as well. And if this 10mm does this decently out of the 29, imagine what it will do out of a 16 in barrel. And it's good to see a successful test after that dismal 38 not so special. Cheers

[@leroycaudill96]

Actually looks pretty good to some of the higher priced ammo you've tested I do believe I would buy this good video tools thanks Tools for the test you do for us all.

[@Bob-lq9ys]

Very good test with good results, Keep them videos rocking buddy

[@AC-bl1rl]

Not bad, I'll have to try some in the G40

[@bglk2310]

Another great vid hat man. Stay safe with the snow storm coming in

[@stevecooper7037]

Glad to see the G29 added to the mix. Can't wait for the Buffalo Bore, Underwood, Grizzly ammo tests.
