    FBI 10mm Lite Load Data?

    I want to create some 10mm ammo similar to the 10mm lite load to shoot out of my S&W 610.
    How much difference would there be using 40 S&W load data in a 10mm case?

    Using .40 S&W DATA to load the 10mm case is safe, but you need to ensure that your pistol will function reliably.

    In the past when I assembled such a load, I had good results using a 200-grain bullet and 5 grains of Bullseye.

    A 180-grainer might not function reliably with this charge in some 10mm pistols, but it's worth trying.

    A S&W 610 is a revolver. Pretty sure it's not going to have a problem with functioning reliably.

    Yes, this is for a revolver, no functioning problems!

    as mentioned. Use 40 short and weak load data.
