Not exactly a hide out pistol. I don't even want to think what a center mass hit would look like in a defensive situation. The 41 mag 175 gr HP silvertip just knocks the stuffing out of pigs.

The 210 gr berry plated flat point with enough unique to get 1100 fps is a nice round.

a the range I hunt I would take on most any pig I have seen with the 210 gr Nosler Double Tap.

Big Pistol

Edit sorry. 58 compared to detective special



oops get to get my graphic

210 gr berry plated at 1100 fps makes a nice range and plinking round.

the 175 gr hp gives me exit holes between a quarter and a half dollar. muzzle energy 560ft/lb in four inch barrel

Edit 980ft/lb was for 44mag. Misread notes.
