Re: Ruger #1-S 45-70 or 9.3x74R

NE450No2--
Not to be in disagreement but I will be the devils advocate here.I would think that a 375H&H at 2500 fps moving 250 fps faster would hit harder and penetrate deeper than a .363 bullet at 2250 fps with the same bullet type. I realize that there would be no difference compared to the 375 Flanged moving at the same speed.

I have no data or information to support that thought just concern over penetration of a 9.3 cartridge 250 fps slower and with 1000 ft/pnds less energy.Granted these parameters don't define penetration but they contribute signifigantly none the less.

I have no experience with the 9.3 and well may buy one but am concerned whether that cushion of 250 extra fps gives more reliable killing ability.
