I thought Magnum has up to .50, or it was the Desert Eagle,

anyway, I am sure some Sniper rifle's round are larger than that.

Are you just going to say Pistols or are you going to count Rifles also?

If you count Rifles then you have a BIG list infront of you. if you count Pistols only then the Desert Eagle is more powerful but there isn't much of a "Common" round besides that. Even though you don't see many people with DE's also :)

There are actually several handguns that are more powerful then the .44 Magnum. The 454 Casull among them. It is no longer, as Dirty Harry said, &quot;The most powerful handgun in the world.&quot;

What about those big battleship turret-mounted guns? They look pretty powerful.

I don't think that protection will take the impact of 7.62mm shells at 3500 fps =)

Yea I know there are definantly other pistols out there that are more powerful, but just not very common. Like I said though I don't see to many people with DE's also :)

Hey you techno weenies, your not handgun enthusiasts are ya'll? :)

The .44 mag is one of the most powerful handgun cartridges. The .45 is NOT. The .50AE and .454 Casull have more punch. Not to mention old favorites like the .357 and .45LC Then new ones like .357 sig. All have more speed than than the old trusty .45
