compared with the 357 and 44 magnum the 45acp doesn't look very intimidating either, but it has earned a serious reputation.

I have used quite a few large bore rounds on game from the 375,404,416's of many flavors, 425,450/400, 500 Jeffery and 505 Gibbs and the more I used them and saw how they killed the more impressed I became with my 458 Win.
