1650-1700 verses 1750 or 1800 with round ball. The only betterment between the two I've noticed was the sabo/bullet comb's ability to hold onto its (tighter groupings) at longer distances. As both projectiles were near the same weight with a slight difference in their B/P charges Doc.
But the big flat meplate seen on a 44 cast offers somewhat better terminal devastation than a round ball in most circumstances I believe. Especially so at long distances. {100 plus yards.} But I still believe in big game situations where the shot isn't over 75 yards a 54 round ball is more than sufficient in that scenario. That big heavy ball the 54 shoots has allot of kinetic energy going for it at that distance I'm quite sure along with overwhelming wallop when it hits something > anything that come in contact with it period.
