It depends on your definition of "powerful" however, 10mm ammo tends to have more muzzle energy than .357 magnum ammo. Every chart I've seen rates 10mm muzzle energy above 700 ft lbs and .357 magnum muzzle enegry below 600. Even though the velocity of some .357 rounds was higher than some 10mm rounds, the muzzle energy was higher for the 10mm in every chart that I've seen. So I think the answer to your question is yes, however, in an effort to try to be as accurate as possible, it depends on the load. It is possible to download a 10mm to a lower pressure or to load a .357 to a higher pressure.
