Ammo: Winchester Defender Bonded 180 Grain JHP (Test results from a M&P40C 3.5" Barrel)
Gun: Glock 22 (4.49" Barrel)
In your opinion, what is the % chance that just 1 shot from .40, through the heart, with THIS SPECIFIC ammo and sized gun, will do the job? No matter how big the person is.
People often tout .357 mag as the only pick of the common handgun ccw calibers that reliably/frequently achieves one shot stops, but I feel .40 isn't much less capable. Eh? Idk why people say .40 "Short & Weak"? It often hits harder than .45 AND .40 Hollow Points expands more reliably than .45, due to higher velocity. What gives? I say this setup would be a pretty frequent 1 shot stop too. And you get (POTENTIALLY) 16 "One-Shot Stops". .357 mag at most, on average, can give 7 potential 1 shot stops, due to only 7-round capacity.
