I have read many times that there are .45 Colt loads that are ballistically superior to the .44 magnum. I have also seen this disputed as many times. If it is true, can anyone state a specific load and the specific ballistics of the load? I realize it would only be safe in a Ruger Blackhawk, Redhawk, Freedom Arms, Thompson Center or any revolver chambered for a .454 Casull.
