Like I said, I have and love a 43c and a 351c. The 'just kidding' was in reference to practicing with the 43c (you know, so the recoil doesn't wear you down). With 8 CCI Velocitors ("HP design derived from Gold Dot technology") in the LR, I would figure it equal to 7 Gold Dots in the Maggie. Love 'em both. And, if shot placement really is everything either is more than adequate.
