A 10mmCLP is listed as 0.014lb total weight(The bullet and the propellant combined) that is equal to 98 grains.

Today the lightest 10mm bullets commonly used are about 135 grains, with something like 155-180 grains being more normal(and some bullets being 200 grains), then add the propellant to that and the UT total seems... very low in comparison.
