It’s like a little nuclear explosion inside, didn’t you know?
But, but where’s the little explosion inside?I kinda assumed there was some photoshop going on there since it seems so radically different.
10mm vs 44mag
I take it that you liked the 1st one better, where there’s an explosion and the 10mm bullet is larger in diameter than the .45?10mm with a 115gr bullet? Then why not compare it to a .44 Mag with a 115gr bullet? lol

Agreed that both charts are fucked up and made to target a specific audience.View attachment 8390997
Heck I never would have imagined there was a .40 bullet that light, even monometal ones.
I'm not gonna start anything, but those two are poor examples of either cartridge and neither is a "best load for bear". 500 ft lbs for 10mm is low end. 900 for .44 is on the low-mid side. Both would use hard cast or mono metal slugs for bear. At the end of the day, 10mm is a better analog for .357 mag, not .44. If it's absolute power you crave then it's .44 all day.Agreed that both charts are fucked up and made to target a specific audience.
Take these charts for example, in a comparison for best load for bear:

Again, is it a fair comparison? That depends upon what you are trying to accomplish.
In the above example, once again the .44 mag load is using 10 more grains of powder to push a bullet that’s 100 grains heavier. Is that useful information? Yes. Is it a direct comparison? Hardly.
What’s missing from this one is that the 10mm is usually carried and used in an autoloader and the .44 magnum is usually carried and used in a wheel gun, with the notable exception of the brick that’s made by Magnum Research.

granted it's hard to get an apples to apples comparison sometimes..10mm vs 44mag
If I had to pick, I'd opt for the 44mag with a 300 gr Buffalo bore. Reason being, I want something that is more likely to break a shoulder bone, at a minimum so his ass drops far enough away from me. Penetration and foot pounds of energy.granted it's hard to get an apples to apples comparison sometimes..
but,
10mm 115 grains 4.25" barrel vs 44mag 240 grain 6.5"..
1.25 inches in barrel length is huge in pistol - 10 mm with another .75 on the barrel

So many places that could plausibly hold nipples!
Yeah, you tell him...go ahead...tell him!Chuck that glove isn't correct.
An opportunity was wasted here by not using a handgun that's 'cocked and locked'...
