While I have the greatest reespect for their work, I think that the reduced weight will make it difficult to accurately shoot full-power loads.

First Rule: Have a gun (implies that you can carry it concealed -- whatever your particular situation may be).
Second Rule: Pick the largest caliber that you can accurately shoot.
