| My favorate is 45ACP with 230 gr. round nose (Rainier plated) pushed to around 850 FPS, works well if you do your part. My 357 load is much warmer to do the same job, 158 Gr. flatpoints @ about 1250 FPS. Again, big bullets at moderate velocity beats light and fast. It's a momentum thing, not kenetic energy. Tried a CZ52, just for fun, 95 gr. ball at about 1500 fps. Went completely through the pin and barely knowked it over. So much for this velocity thing. |
