[QUOTE="SMS, post: 2295160, member: 42"] Owning a Judge is not a requirement to talk about terminal ballistics, ammunition selection/availability and overall practicality. Winchester's new brew for the Judge might be good, but at over $1.00 per round, is it really that good? Since when is "as good as the .38" a good measure for choosing a primary self defense weapon? The gun is big, heavy and only gives you five rounds. It's not cheap at least in comparison to other modern, reliable high capacity semis that can be had for about the same $$. Again, .410 has never been on the list of reliable man stoppers, as evidenced by its nearly complete absence in the law enforcement and military world. It'll take more than some backyard tests, even from the box o' truth, (even though a lot of the tests I've seen show substandard penetration on clothed gelatin) to convince me that the Judge is a viable [I]first[/I] choice for self defense. There simply are better tools available for the job. [/QUOTE]
