The reason behind my question is because I have a Redhawk in 44mag and 1911 45acp.
In an effort to get use to the recoil of the 44mag, I'm attempting to download to 44spec levels.
When it occurred to me, that I'm loading to similiar ballistics of the 45acp.
And from listening to other post that the 44mag doesn't have to be loading to magnum levels to be effective, then why not stick to 45apc or 45acp +p loads if not gaining much in performance?
