True. But you also have to hit what you are shooting at, meaning THAT pistol firing that round will recoil like a son of a gun, making it tough to maintain an aim point. It is a serious short range pistol however.

The same is true for a long barrel .357 magnum. Heck of a punch, but put two rounds in a 12 inch circle.

... of course you may not need more than one round ;-)

I’ll stick with my .45

I don't know. I used to regularly put 6 aimed shots in the black with my 8" .44 at 50 yds. My partner the same with a 6" .357. Haven't shot it much in a while but I bet I could get my whiskey eye again before burning up a box of 50.
