Yes they did make it in 10mm. I have a few boxes left from the Balck Talon pre-ban days. Last I looked it was about $45-$60 shipped for NOS. Unless you area collector, there is other ammo just as effective.

It's a minor point given how long ago it was but there was never a ban. Winchester decided to take the Black Talon off the market because of all the media hype. They re-introduced it as the Ranger line with brass jackets on the bullets instead of the black coloration. Look at an expanded Ranger bullet and you will see the same "talons" that started all the fuss.

That was the Ranger SXT (Same eXact Thing)

I'd like winchester to offer the SXT as a component for reloading. I've gotten a few from .40s&w loadings. But then I have to find someone to give the .40 cases to.

Winchester Ranger T. Guess what the "T" stands for? You won't find it at walmart but some LE distributors will sell to the public. And they don't make a 10mm.
