There needs to be a low velocity 50 caliber revolver cartridge. Such a cartridge would offer unparalleled stopping power without the need for hollow point bullets and tolerable recoil. Hopefully, a better mousetrap will eventually sell itself.

>stopping power

You could always get a revolver chambered for .50AE and use moonclips. And besides that the concept seems to be an answer in search of a question. There are a ton of established calibers to choose from that are all virtually the same when it comes to civilian carry purposes.

That's a supersonic rifle cartridge.

Most established calibers are severely lacking in killing power.

Not a revolver round.
>500 S&W magnum?
High velocity makes lots of recoil.
>50 beowulf?
That's a damn rifle round.
>50 special?
Closest thing to what I'm thinking.

why would a low velocity non-expanding .50 be better than a expanding .45?
