So here's the question...
At what point do all these monster-hot loads like .454, .47-whatsit, so forth and so on hit the point of diminishing returns? I mean, at some point with the hardcasts you're just going to punch straight through a critter end to end,right? So then what's the point of exiting at omagazillion FPS as opposed to just petering out the far side?
What practically am I gaining from a .454 as opposed to a .44 Mag as opposed to one of Buffalo Bore's "standard pressure" heavy 45 Colt loads?
Where's the practical optimum between "enough to crunch through to something important" and "oh my dear GOD I don't want to pull the trigger on this thing again?"
