Depending on who you ask, this either confirmed what everyone familiar with practical, tactical handgun ballistics already knew, or was an absurd perpetuation of a fiction that sounded good on paper but had no place in the real world.

The FBI鈥檚 justification report dismissed many of the conclusions that were held virtually universally by entire generations, including that for handgun calibers 鈥渂igger is better.鈥?They insisted that the long-held notion that bigger calibers, .45 ACP ammo, in particular, is a 鈥渙ne shot stop鈥?that no one walks away from鈥攁s they might a hit from a 9mm鈥攚as simply false and based wholly on 鈥渕yth and folklore.鈥?The substance of their findings was boiled down to one bullet point on which their conclusion was based: 鈥淗andgun stopping power is simply a myth.鈥?BR>
Is Handgun Stopping Power a Myth?

If there is 鈥渟topping power鈥?that doesn鈥檛 involve a CNS-shot, it鈥檚 the muzzle energy transferred to the person hit with the round, and the penetration depth of that round, doing the stopping more than it is the size of the handgun round. The fact is, the 9mm hits harder and penetrates deeper than the .45. But there are more important considerations than muzzle velocity and terminal ballistics.

There is a very popular trope that鈥檚 brought up when people are discussing the best caliber handgun for home defense. It鈥檚 informally considered the ultimate template for judging caliber effectiveness: the really big guy looking to do you harm while both anesthetized by and powered-up on drugs. If the caliber being discussed isn鈥檛 judged sufficient to stop this boogeyman, it鈥檚 declared too 鈥渁nemic鈥?to be an effective carry. Undoubtedly, at some point, this scenario has probably played out somewhere. However, for most people, a scenario quite as extreme playing out is (hopefully) unlikely.

A Smaller Every Day Carry (EDC)

As such, the need for a lot o ?in your EDC is exponentially less important than a pistol th easily carried andor concealed, comfortable to hold and train, and has a high capacity. The FBI report pointed out that trained federal agents miss 70-80% of the time in firefights. An adrenaline-wired civilian defending themselves is almost certainly not going to do better. That also means that having a caliber small enough to limit recoil and muzzle flip for subsequent shot placement is a priority.

Of course, the best-case scenario
