Well, I do like the .45, but still tend to lean toward the .44 caliber. I'm still so undecided that I keep a stable of both calibers.
My experience is the the .45 Colt has the slight edge with the heavy bullets, 300~350 gr. weights, while the .44 takes the cake for high-steppin' light bullets of 180 gr. weight. Nothing in my neck of the woods merits anything heavier than 230~255 grs. anyway.
Out in the 100~200 yard range, the .44 seems to shine brighter. That's my experience, maybe other folks will disagree.
