not amounting to a hoot as a manstopper. Guys were lying about the .45 Colt even before they were lying about .45 ACP ball ammo. I've shot a lot of animals with both, and neither one of them can be relied upon to stop a chuck, jackrabbit or **** with a chest hit. That's a fact, and I can prove it. No bs stories, just 5 such animals, 5 shots to the chest, and your $500 vs my $5000 that at least 2 of them run at least 30 ft before falling. YOu can have "faith" in such loads if you want. Faith is defined as "belief without REASON".

You shooting some mighty tough animals. What would you suggest, a 155?

no, dummy, I suggest more EFFICIENT

loads in a .45 ACP, or better yet, in a .460 Rowland. u even know what the Rowland cartridge IS? It's not at all difficult to get 70 gr, 3 segment prefrags to 2300 fps in a 4" barreled ccw auto. Recoil is like .45 ball, and it's AP, too.

Just my humble opinion, I'd hate to be shot by a .45LC, I'm pretty positive that if it didn't kill me it would hurt like heck!
