The purests always like to bring up the fact that the cartridge was designed for a 5 inch barrel so it doesn't develop full "power" in a shorter barrel. This is true in the chrono tests especially much below 4 inches, but at SD range and the target isn't vested or armored I don't think that makes much difference. A BIG slug is still a big slug even if it isn't a racecar :p;)
