Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't, period. It's not universal. There is a lot of overlap and like I said, you have to look at individual bullets.

For example:
355gr .44 at 1130fps - TKO - 24.6, meplat .340"
360gr .45 at 1060fps - TKO - 24.6, meplat .355"
.

So I have to say, I don't see how anyone can honestly say that the .45 is "a bigger hammer - period". The two are neck and neck no matter how you look at it.



The 44 is .429 and the 45 is .452 no matter larger the meplat on the 44 bullet the 45 can always have a larger meplat. A 90% meplat is larger in 45 caliber always has been always will be.
