I would guess a huge percentage of guys shooting .45 Colt are engaged in
"cowboy" shooting, and are not looking for high pressures. I've even
seen some .45 in what was called Smith & Wesson .45, a round shorter
than the .45 Colt round.
If you are not in actual "cowboy" competition I am still not sure what
the attractiveness if .45LC is.
I imagine you could shoot a "SA Army" type, 44 mag revolver, with .44
spc loads.
It gives you some real bang if you need it., soft pop if you don't.
You are mentally limiting what others might do by what you might do.
Some like the Colt round and pistol for nostalgic reasons, I'd bet. I
know I do.
... and you say I am the dinosaur
You like obsolete computers and operating systems. There's nothing
obsolete about a .45 Colt round; it still does the job, and against
modern adversaries. It's not like trying to run complex, contemporary
software in a decades old computer with a decade old OS.
