  • Most deadly pistol round

    What do you all believe are the most deadly pistol rounds? Be careful about saying "according to......": I'm going to get an ER surgeons input on this one.

      All things being equal, ie shot placement and bullet wt. The last thing (of the more common calibers) I would want to be hit with is the .357 mag. Ofcourse, an incompetent Dr can do me in just as easy.

        Are you President James A. Garfield??
        “He was the most prodigious personification of all human inferiorities. He was an utterly incapable, unadapted, irresponsible, psychopathic personality, full of empty, infantile fantasies, but cursed with the keen intuition of a rat or a guttersnipe. He represented the shadow, the inferior part of everybody’s personality, in an overwhelming degree, and this was another reason why they fell for him.”

          Cough..Cough, I will neither comfirm, nor deny that rumor. Cough.
          I will say that my scrotum pressure device, when installed on my dentist, has made my visits more pleasant. "We are not going to hurt each other, are we?"

            You mean there are less dangerous pistol rounds?....that don't kill.

            Cheers!...on the rocks!!

              Anything .44 Magnum and up is very "deadly", although "effective" would be a better word since all bullets are deadly to a certain degree.

                I'm not sure, but I thought it was the Desert Eagle's 50.AE round.

                  That's a good point; placement. An expert marksman can kill you with a well placed .22 caliber long rifle rimfire. But that is if you are standing or sitting very still, he is not too far away and using a Remington 513T target rifle aiming at your unprotected temple or eardrum.

                  But in general combat situations, where bullets are often shot only at the general direction of an enemy, I would bet on the .44 magnum semi-jacketed round from a REVOLVER, with the .44 Automag in the semi-auto pistols. That is if you want knockdown with impressive penetration.

                  For MORE penetration, however the .41 magnum is considered a greater penetrator than the .44 mag (and there is only .019 difference between the two with .44 actually being .429). Unfortunately that can only apply for revolvers as I have not seen any rimless rifle cartridges modified to take the .41 as in the .44 automag (which actually uses a .308 case cut back to the shoulder).

                  At least not since I got out of the gun shop business back in the late 70s (partner take-over and too damn much government paperwork).

                      Hey! would a 12 gauge double barrel shotgun with the barrel cut at say.. 5" count as a pistol round? If so then I want to change my answer because...thats gotta hurt.

                        I would say hollow points or black talons.

                          There is a nice new family of the enhanced penetration rounds for russian pistols.
                          Haven't seen them "in the wild" though.
