"The load I shoot in my Smith is usually a 250 grain LSWC running right at 900 fps. It will go end to end through a fairly good sized pig, and in Florida, there is nothing that won't fall, and quickly, to one of those fat slugs.
Long ago, I realized that for me, if I need more than that, I'll reach for a rifle."
+1. It can be fun to hot rod the .45 colt, but 900fps has been a sweet spot for accuracy and effectiveness in my experience.
