The 10mm is really nothing more than a 357 Mag in Auto Form. It fires the same weight slug at the same velocity. I just don't get all this crap abut carrying hand gun for self defense against animals. Wild Horses, Wild Mules, Bears, and even a mountain lion are hard to kill and a hand gun just don't cut it. You should be carrying a 12 or 10 gauge shot gun loaded with slugs.

357 is basically a 9mm. I’m not out hunting. I’m not carrying a long arm around larping like I’m in some jungle safari. I’m out exploring parts of the country playing cowboy and exploring mines. Not looking for a gunfight

Shotgun with a sling with slugs and buck. I’m surprised having a close call like that you’d think a pistol would suffice. I carry a 357 or nine always and if I feel the need a shotgun. Wife is usually with me too and she’s got her nine as well ALWAYS. After a weird experience in the PNW I’ve been looking into upgrading the 870 to a semi 12 gauge.

Get a Glock 20 or 29 10mm. Both are awesome and very manageable. The 40mos is sweet too but it's probably too big for much practical use.

Too big in terms of? A 40cal is the same size (diameter) of a 10mm, just with a shortened cartridge

A glock 10mm is just big dimensionally. If you have small hands the grip could be too much. Also it's way too big for concealed carry. Still they are great guns in general.

If you want power, you'll have to handle the kick. Or carry a 30-30 carbine.

30-30's don't have that much kick at all, honestly. A little oomph to it but it's a satisfying oomph.

I have a Winchester 1894 pre 64 30-30 that’s a total safe queen. When I die it’s going with me to my grave. And it’s a little hard to lever a long gun with a beer in your hand lol
