Another way to look at it is less rounds than a 9mm and more recoil than a .45.
The 40 S&W flat point ammunition (UMC bulk, etc.) will outperform 45 ACP ball ammunition on live targets. Don't know why you can't get cheap flat pt FMJ 45 ACP, would seem like a no brainer - I would buy it for my 45...this debate come from the poor folks like me that are forced to use ball ammo i wich case .45 would be my choice if i where able to use hollow point i would have no problem using 9mm (witch i have to use) or .40.
theres my 2 pennies
I like the .40 S&W, compromise or not.
I have always been under the impression that the .40 is a compromise in that it is between 9 and .45
but is actually better than both, at least performance wise.
