I truly feel that the .40 is the best multipurpose self defense load for me for these reasons:
While the .357 is superior to the .40, I have 3x the capacity in my Glock 35 and have quicker reloads in the semi-auto.
I own and mostly shoot .40 caliber pistols. I'm not particularly sensitive to handgun recoil. I've never shot a .357 sig or a 10mm.
Can somebody please convince me that the 10mm or the .357 is worth the added cost of getting new guns and buying more expensive ammo.... or, can I convert my .40 pistols (Glock, Springfield XDs) to 10mm or .357
OR
Can somebody tell me that the .40 is marginally less than the 10mm or the .357Sig and to not be that concerned with this marginal difference.
Basically, is the difference in performance worth the added cost of a new pistol and more expensive ammo, or is it too insignificant (practically speaking) to worry about?
I'd like to see some ballistics comparison if you have it handy.
Thanks.
