bambihunter,

You know that picture of the different semi-automatic bullets(.380,9mm,.357sig,.45acp,.10mm) that you posted along with the pic of your Glock and thirteen magazines?Do you have any other pics like that of other rounds?It's nice for comparison purposes.If you have anymore could you post them.
thanks,

Muggster

  Here's a pretty good link if you want specifics. Just click on the caliber.

  I guess I was too late on the keyboard tonight... No, I don't have any other graphics, I need to assemble the "new" common ones and take some pics.
  Thanks for "taking up the slack" in my absence guys... [:)]
  
  One other thing, a person can learn a LOT about the power of cartridges by going to a shop that has bulk brass. Of course a longer/bigger cartridge doesn't always mean higher velocity and/or energy, but it does give some hints. That, along with a good cartridge book will go a long ways (towards making you a 10mm fan too!) [;)][:D]

  Yes it does get confusing... There's no real standard, some hyphenated cartridges use part of their name from thier parent cartridge, others denote the amount of black powder they used (or even smokeless for that matter). The cartridges of the world is a great book, I just recently picked it up. Years ago I learned a lot about 'em by just browsing the bulk reloading bins then researching what I perceived to be good cartridges. BTW, when it comes to cartridges, especially rifle there are a lot of more knowledgeable people on here than me. I am intimately knowledgeable about a select few cartridges that I really like. (for non-wildcat cartridges they are: 6mm Rem, 7mm STW, .300 Win mag, .444 Marlin, .458 Mag, .40 S&W, .357 SIG, .44 mag, and my favorite - the 10mm)
  
  Oh, I just remembered... I actually DO have a few other pics, but not quite as good, nor do they have the names under it.
  
  
  
  I do know there's a 40 S&W and a 10mm in there, I'm not sure whether the first ones are .38 specials, mags or what... It's hard to tell without measurements like these:
  
  
  
  Ya think the .357 SIG is a good round, try a 10mm necked down:
  
  
  
  
  
  
  It matters not how many times you've been knocked down. What matters is how many times you've gotten back up.
