Hmm.. no four hundred forty five??? You know, slightly smaller than a S&W 500

Also when I show it to someone and say 445 they look 
"you mean 454 ??"
NO...
445, it's like a 44 and a half !!
Now, How did they come up w/that number ?? 44 is obvious.

I usually say "four four five supermag"
Yes that does usually require more explanation, but that's where the fun starts.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Well since it is a Forty Four Magnum bullet, I would have to say ….Forty Four Five seems like it would be the correct way to say it.
