I am curious to know what you think about this -
Target shooters use the 38 Special wadcutter and 45 ACP here in the USA. Is there any special advantage to the cartridges themselves in terms of inherent accuracy as compared to other cartridges? I am specifically thinking of 9mm Luger which has as long a history as any modern handgun cartridge. Any incremental improvements that have occurred to the USA cartridges in terms of bullet design or whatnot have had time to occur to the 9mm. Is an equal quality 9mm pistol as accurate as a 45 ACP? If not, why not? Discuss.
TIA
