Quite a claim but like you said, anyone? If I ever wanted another caliber I could go for that.

This is just a deep-seated 9x23 Winchester, which operates at 55k psi. Any 1911 or full size Witness pistol capable of using a 38 Super magazine can be rechambered from 9mm to 9x23 Win and utilize the full-length cartridge. With the right powders and careful handloading, you can get a 124 grain to 1600 fps or a 147 grain to 1400 fps in a fully-supported barrel easily and without danger. It's a 9- or 17-shot 357 magnum with much less recoil that is only a barrel and springs change away. Also, no comp is necessary.

Ok, is the damn thing a 960 or 460? I think 960 would be very hard to hold on to! LOL!

The 460 Rowland is one awesome caliber in a 1911 size gun.

While I get it, I think the name makes it a non starter. "960!!! Wooooo.... of wait it's just a 9mm magnum"  |

Maybe close to the lightest 357's, but a heavier bullet load favors the 357. Over 150grs is 357 only. |

Huh? You can shoot any bullet weight in a .460 Rowland you can shoot in .45 acp. .460 is NOT a 9mm anything.

Maybe close to the lightest 357's, but a heavier bullet load favors the 357. Over 150grs is 357 only. Agreed--about equivalent to light-bullet .357 ballistics, but the .357 quickly pulls away above that weight. But the 9x23 shines as a defensive cartridge because the 125 grain bullet has been shown to be well-suited to that task, and it holds more capacity in the auto pistol. |

I don't really get the higher capacity argument. I practice alot. I'm fast. I rarely miss at defensive ranges. I am a vet who keeps cool in stressful situations.
No matter how many there is,bad people scatter after lead gets the first one or two.
