If your taste for adventure travel and sporting potential sends you in this direction--ENJOY. My tastes are a lot more pedestrian as time goes on--44 Magnum is about as much as I want to mess around with, thank you. Most of those run 900-1000 FPS these days, rather than the 1350 FPS that I thought was required in my younger days. Same story in the 45 Colt (Ruger)--1000 FPS imparted to a 250-260 grain casting is just fine. At some point, it is time to find a rifle.
