If both are shooting the same style bullet the 45 n=makes a larger diameter wound channel that I have always been able to distinguish just by looking at the animals, never a doubt as to which shot which animal

A bullet I have shot that has a pretty large meplat is the Lee 45-255-FP. It has a meplat you can almost dance on. I've shot Jackrabbits with it from a Colt SAA .45 Colt at just over 800fps & you can hear the bullet hit. Whaaack, it stiffens them right out. I have not shot any big game with it, but I wouldn't hesitate under the right conditions. I'll bet it'd work well. I like that bullet. Frank

The reason I purchased both my .475 and .500JRH BFRs was because of the accuracy. Having fought my Accu-Sport Bisley for years and maybe finally mastered it while being almost bored by the easy accuracy of my .44's, I tend to agree with the above. My next handgun will probably definitely be a .454 BFR.

Yup, you're all right. There's no place in the world for the 44 magnum.
