The only time the 44 fans and 45 fans agree is when they team-up to put down the 357 shooters. It's really funny when you think about it.

I like the 44 and 45, and find the whole argument amusing. But.. am willing to be educated with something more than anecdotal evidence grin

And yet, I'm completely prepared for nobody to come forth with any objective evidence that sways the argument one way or the other.



My take:

I have a 41 magnum and 3 45 Colts. Meplat, velocity, energy and all other factors have me convinced the difference in .41 and .429 isn't enough for me to own a .44 and the Colt is undeniably a proven round...
