I have noticed that there are two opposing schools of thought on what type of handgun ammuntion has the best stopping power. One is lead by Evan Marshall, who examines shooting statistics and often finds that the higher velocity/lighter bullet loads have the best stopping power. The other school of thought, which I have encountered on the firearmstactical website, says that the heaviest bullet loads, like 147 grain in 9mm, and 180 grain in .40, have the best stopping power.
I don't know which side is right. I have read a bit on Evan Marshall's stopping power website, and also some on the firearmstactical website, and both make sense to me in their arguements.
Would anyone care to say which side you think is right, and why?
