A man cannot call himself peaceful if he is not capable of violence. If he's not capable of violence he isn't peaceful, he is harmless. There is a distinct difference.

Fate whispers to the warrior "You cannot weather this storm". The warrior replies, "I am the storm".

That's about what I expected.
I'm using a 6" barrel on my 45 Super and I was expecting 50-60 fps advantage over 5" barrel.

My G21 with Storm Lake threaded barrel is just in line with the one they have listed. 255gr hard cast approaching 1100fps is a stout load. I'd feel very comfortable carrying that in dangerous game country. It's not 454Casull, but it's controllable and the G21 is easy to carry.
