OK, so the question is, if you had to use a cast bullet in a 3" revolver chambered for .45 Colt would you use a 200gr bullet or the old 255gr bullet?

This would be for personal protection against bad guys.

I'm pretty sure either one would work but maybe the 200gr bullet would be better suited for that application.

Thoughts?
