Solved from this product's advertised 1410 fps, 155gr bullet and G1 BC 0.137, with the sight 0.5" over the bore at standard conditions. Compare every zero for 10mm Auto.
How to read it: filled circles are the near and far zero, where the bullet's path crosses the line of sight;the triangle is the peak (max ordinate). The shaded band is the 4" vital zone, ±2" either side of the line of sight. The dashed line marks the edge of the hold-dead-on window. The chart is zoomed to where the zero matters; the tables below run to 100 yards.

Product Overview
Hornady Custom 155-grain XTP is a jacketed hollow point 10mm Auto load made for personal defense. The XTP is Hornady's lead-core hollow point. At 1,410 fps and 684 ft-lbs it is the fastest and hardest-hitting 10mm load compared.
With a 25-yard zero it prints 0.8 inch low at 50, the least drop of the loads compared, and it is still moving 1,224 fps. Estimated recoil in a compact pistol is 10.4 ft-lbs, the most of them.
If you're cross-shopping, Hornady's own 135-grain MonoFlex is 95 fps slower at 1,315 fps with no lead in the bullet. Winchester USA Ready Defense 170-grain runs 1,250 fps on a heavier bullet. PMC Bronze 170-grain is the practice-pace hollow point of the group, at 1,200 fps.
- Holds 516 ft-lbs at 50 yards, 41 more than Winchester USA Ready Defense 170-grain
- 141 more ft-lbs at the muzzle than PMC Bronze 170-grain
- 0.4 inch less drop at 50 yards than PMC Bronze 170-grain from the same zero
- About 49 percent more estimated recoil in the same pistol than Hornady's 135-grain MonoFlex
- A lead-core bullet, where Hornady's 135-grain MonoFlex is solid copper alloy
- The hardest-recoiling load compared, just above Winchester USA Ready Defense 170-grain
