Better for what? I've heard people complain that the 17 HMR wasn't a good hog gun and a 357 Mag destroyed too much meat on rabbits. So, "Better" is a relative term.

My revolvers range from 17 HMR to 45-70 and 500x1.4". I can't say which is best.

Now favorite is a different story. My favorite revolver cartridge is the 45 Colt. The 44 Special runs a mighty close second.

Still can't tell you which revolver cartridge is "Better "
