Solomon:
Which gun is best? Which car is best? Which cigar is best?
The best gun is one you can be confident with, that will be reliable (lots to choose from), and that will put a maximum amount of hurt in your intended target and nobody else
(consistent with the last parameter, I always push a lighter, high velocity, high energy HP load (Force=MassxAcceleration).I love autoloaders and have staked my life in the field (Texas peace officer) on my Beretta 96 and several others. However, you cannot beat a wheelgun for reliability. The venerable 357 mag is still a very proven man stopper (recommend pre-fragmented "swat loads" or some of the top-end HP's).
"The fear of the Lord leads to life, and he who has it will abide in satisfaction. He will not be visited with evil"
Proverbs 19:23
