I just recently bought a White Super 91 in a .451 caliber. I bought it because I've liked my .50 so much. I just ran the ballistics on the .50 compared to the .45 and was surprised. Using a 460 grain "no excuses" bullet in both of them the .45 has more energy and less drop over ALL ranges. So why is the .50 so much more popular? What am I missing? I find it ironic that CO won't let you use a .45 on elk even though it has more energy.
