The special is a really weak round ....
5 or 6 rounds available in the .44, more than twice that in most 10mms.
Weapon capacity?
That may be but at that weight and speed it just ain't a .44 Special anymore. That's pushin' 44 Mag territory.250 grs @ 1200 fps was Elmer's favorite load;

It's always interesting to come across someone who holds their various body parts in such low regard.A hand loader can push the 44 special to the extreme and get 800 t lbs of energy. I have hand loaded 10mm that exceeded 950 ft lbs of energy. The 10mm will outperform the 44 special any day. I have also pushed the 357 mag to the 900 ft lb of energy level.
