Interesting Article in American Hunter---Not

I was just reading through the October on-line issue of American Hunter. There is an article entitled ".357 Magnum vs. .45 Colt". I had saved that one for last, expecting a comparison of the two calibers for various tasks. Instead the author, Ian de Silva, described why he preferred hunting deer with the .357 Magnum because its recoil was more managable than that of the .44 Magnum, .460 Magnum, or the .454 Casull. .45 Colt is only mentioned as an afterthought in the price of handgun ammunition. The writing of NRA publications certainly has deteriorated since the days Elmer wrote for them.
