I know I know I know. We covered this many times before. Upon debating on my barrel choice, the next hardest debate is the caliber of course. I am very pro .45 as it is as cute as they get and minimum in deer hunting in CT. Plenty for deer and good at the range. Of course range time is sweet with .40, .36, .54, etc and the rest up and down, I can't go lower than .45 and really don't want recoiling caliber. Of course for plinking the best would be something tiny, but at this time I can't afford two at a time. There is only two more I need. Bird getting fowler at 20ga and small game sniper around .36-.40. I may just settle on the fowler for both.
Now what about the "big" .50? Anyone plinks with these? A bit heavier than .45, a bit lighter than .54. It may have just this extra ooph on a bigger buck a little farther away from what I'm reading.
I need to make up my mind rather fast before my builder orders the barrel.
I just like both of these and like mentioned in another topic, both will be shoot no longer than 60-70 when hunting unless the opportunity comes at about 100 (doubt this anyway) and year round for range time.
This picking and choosing is crazy. I asked few experienced members here and still a little unsure. Am I loosing something picking one over the other?
What say you? :hmm:
