Hands down, my S&W 460V. No contest. It does everything. It has a 5" barrel, shoots 45 Colt, 454 Casull, and 460 Magnums. If you want a plinker, you got it. If you want a hand cannon, you got that too. Need to shoot an elk, no problem. Have an angry bear coming at you, this will handle the job. And if you happen to miss, with all five shots, the muzzle flash will probably light the critter on fire, and then you can club it to death! LOL Seriously though, the extreme versatility and durability is what I love about this gun.
