45 Colt for heavy bullets 44 Mag for lighter bullets at flatter trajectories
Please explain why they are pigeon-holed in such a way.
The question was 'which one would you pick', I answered according to my own preferences. Both are very flexible but to me, the 44 is better when velocity and flatter trajectories are more important. The 45 meanwhile has the edge in heavier bullet options and when velocity is not as important.
