Caliber war if you were limited

[Aka Zero]

If I was limited to 5 shots..... 454 cassull, single action.

Make every shot count.

If it was just pick you favorite. 9mm, all day every day. It's used by most of the world. And it come in a CZ75 form. Athough I might get a 97 (CZ in .45) because 10 rounds of .45 is pretty fun too.

40 S&W Magnum for me please.

460 S&W Magnum if I have to follow the rules of this game. The 500 S&W has a bigger punch, but I've just had a preference to the in-flight characteristics of the 460 S&W Magnum.

2250 fps is just a turn on.

I'd just put 5 bullets in since that's all that will fit.

I believe I would have to choose a .45. not because of the "bigger is better" idea..though that can't hurt, but because it's a common round. the 1911 has been used by so many countries that it's hard to keep track of em.
it's also a pretty darn good round.
if you're wanting to blow their arm off or something, go with a 454 Casul.

I'll stick with .45 simply because speed is fine but accuracy is final. I can shoot a 1911 with a modicum of ease and with a fine accuracy. 9mm's would do the trick I guess..but I want the bad guy to bleed out quickly or slip his mortal coil from shock due to his head being turned into a canoe.
