Re: 10mm pistol hunting
JHP or JSP out of a 6" barrel should do fine. Choose between them based on what depth of penetration you want.

Re: 10mm pistol hunting
If your aftermarket barrel is same rate of twist as the factory barrel, stick to 180 or 200 gr jacketed. I've gotten better groups with those than I did with one attempt at loading 155 grain FMJ's in a Glock 20.
The other question would be, is your aftermarket barrel Glock polygonal rifling, or conventional land and groove? With conventional rifling, you could shoot cast and resign yourself to have to clean the comp. Shooting cast in polygonal rifling is like that scene in 'Hunt for Red October' where Konalov asks his engineer about going to 105% on the reactor.
"Captain, shooting cast bullets thru polygonal rifling is POSSIBLE, but NOT RECOMMENDED". It's also a pain to clean (de-lead).
