.357 barely outperforms 10mm but that shouldn't be too surprising. And 45 ACP is so low pressure, it doesn't see its true potential realized until you get into +P and Super (or 460 Rowland!Originally posted by Buzzo View Post. 357 out performs 10mm?
.40 out performs. 45 acp?

I had .25 ACP on there but it must have been bumped when I added .460 magnum. I'll add .327 federal in there also and fix the two .22's.Originally posted by nightfly2000 View Postheres a crazy caliber....25ACP?"When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

.50AE is definitely the most powerful semi auto cartridge, followed by 10mm. I think I'll also indicate revolver or semi auto cartridges as well. If you guys see anything that needs to be changed, let me know. I did find some .45 ACP loads that just seemed absurd, I didn't use them because it just didn't make sense. Something like 1250fps for a 185gr, that's .45 super velocities.Originally posted by DOHCTR View PostI would have thought .50 African Eliminator would have been higher."When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin
