Nope ya gotta use your main match rifle.

I guess a 45LC with a flat point bullet might cut throw a one inch rope in one shot. If the shooter uses something smaller he might be there a while.

If'n that rope is 1", then it's gonna take at least two precise shots with a 45. It'll take at least 3 with a 38. I'll probably need to bring my ammo can.
