You know....
There are folk that prefer the .38 Sp over the .357 Mag
Go figure right ? ! ?

Especially stupid when you can fire .38 specials out of a .357 Mag. I use 148 grain cast DEWC's as practice fodder for my .357 mag.

Sort of like you can fire .44 special and .44 Russian ammo out of a .44 magnum, and .45 Colt out of a .454 Casull.
Some people think I'm paranoid because I have so many guns. With all my guns, what do I have to be paranoid about?

There are definitely uses for lower powered ammo that aren't stupid.

For someone who is old, or has diminished capacity to handle recoil, such as arthritis, injury, etc, a heavy magnum shooting light loads makes for reasonably potent defense medicine with reduce felt recoil.  And a 250 grain 44 special at 900 fps is nothing to sneeze at.

Well, this post is now thoroughly de-railed.  Welcome to the forum Buckeye!

www, I use a 255 grain cast .45 Colt in that role.


Of course I fire it out of my .454 Casull as cheaper practice fodder for the big boy loads.
