Well, if you have data to back it up, prove me wrong. I am simply saying that as a lifelong shooter, and a physician who has treated gunshot wounds for over 20 years, I have a bit of knowledge on this subject. Most of the basis for the "stopping power" stuff is decades old, and does not apply to modern premium hollow-point ammo. Modern stuff all meets the FBI standards, regardless of caliber. Add to that the medical issues, which is that a 9 mm hole in the brain will kill just as quickly as an 11 mm (.45) hole in the brain. The 11 mm hole in the foot will do very little. Placement of decent modern bullets in vital organs is what is true "stopping power".

I can go on for days, but I will end this little thread hijack, and return you to your previous political discussion.
