yeah, theres only so big you can go in the pistol grip and still be able to put your hand around it, try putting your hand around a box off 233 and add an inch for the grip(could YOU still pull the trigger?? doubt it)

also, you say that rifle rounds have so much more power, but a 223 out of a 4inch barrel would probably have similar velocity of a 357mag, but with a 55-75gr bullet
