Re: .40 cal Budget Question

The .40 S&W cartridge is a fine round with a good reputation, but some shooters (myself included) have had difficulty adapting to its characteristics. You get fewer rounds with a .45, but they are softer shooting and hit pretty much as hard, and it is hard to argue with its track record.
After shooting TAM's .45 a few weeks back I totally agree. I was also thinking about an experienced person's hands and bones. The .45 might be a better choice. The .40 does get a bit snappy.
