Not to interrupt and errant thread here, but I don’t think the words “best” and “strongest” are necessarily correlative. Let me throw in “durable,” too.

Strongest is only important if the intent is to run magnums through it all the time or do some nutty tinkering. Best is a matter of function, style & grace, with a healthy dose of durability thrown in. I suspect that most of us are highly conflicted gun philanderers, born to be eternally uncertain as to which gun we really think is the best. C’mon, tell the truth.
