A cartridge is developed as a competitor to .38 special, with 25% less recoil, the same hollow point expansion, a bit more penetration through a body, and smaller proportions, increasing capacity by 50%. It has the downside of shitty barrier penetration, unable to make it through car doors and sucking through glass.
Do you prefer this cartridge over the competition?

What year is it? 1900? 9mm is a thing now grandpa.

The theoretical cartridge is for revolvers, and is more similar to a .38, so that's why I chose it as a comparison.

>>34478722
Revolvers are dead and so is .38spl. Why even bother?

Stop trying to be a hipster and carry a semi auto like everyone else. The only people carrying wheelguns for selfdefense are women with some snub nose purse gun, old men who think they're John Wayne, and hipsters who do it more for a reaction cause their parents didn't love them enough.

This isn't about what I want to carry, it's not even about a round or gun that exists. It's just a simple theoretical question.

Except the .22 and .32 magnums both exist, and have for some time.

What about a guy who wants a cartridge for bear AND human protection,or for snake shot, and opportunist or purist deer hunting.
Ever think of that? Not everyone lives in the concrete jungle.
Side bonus is a revolver OC'd doesn't look out of place innawoods, whereas a rimless pistol may garner negative attention from cops/game wardens/dnr

In addition lots of people like the look of a revolver.

Sign me the fuck up

>>34478696
It just depends on what you need. I don't think I'll find myself trying to hit guys through barriers, but cops for example might not want to take that chance.

So you mean .32 H&R mag? No point really because .327 mag is a thing.
