44M/ 44SP v 45LC?

[3beansalad]

I have been given the opportunity to acquire a Henry Big Boy Deluxe Engraved 3rd Ed. and need some advice on caliber.

Based on photos, I'm leaning toward the 44M. Something about the dimensions appeals to me over the 45. But I'm not set on it.

Looking at the rounds themselves, it seems like the 44 would be a better factory round, opinions? Hell, I don't know how much I'd ever fire a limited edition rifle, but safe queens aren't really my thing either.
