ive been thinking on this for a while.
at what time does a specific loading data for a cartridge become a whole new cartridge?
when cassull created the 454, he did it out of both safety for the user of the regular 45 colt, and for convenience in regard to bullet length. he figured out that a new cartridge was best because who wants to pop off 30,000cup in a peacemaker?
yet why is it that the lst few decades have been spent in creating ammunition that "ups" the ballistics to the next level of handgun cartridge?
45 colt ammuntion for rugers that has the same muzzle velocity as most springfield trapdoor loads in 45-70
44 mag loads that are in the zone of "hey, i miked the throat on my 454 and it said .429"
for safety reasons, seriously.
