Hypothetical which would you carry

[peacemaker45]

.45 ACP. I'm a cowboy shooter, I can reload a 12 GA double pretty quick. Given the largeish hole in the .45, a reload might be a possibility. Trying to hold two .32s between three fingers, and load at the same time doesn't even sound fun. itty bitty bullets going into itty bitty holse in a hurry.

Either way you look at, the shot is going to be really close, I'd take the .32 probably because if you shoot a man in the head with a .32, he's just as dead as he would be if you shot him in the head with a .45, and you still have the second shot.

One .45 is a big hole but doubletap the .32 and you get a .64 cal. hole!! LOL

1-.451" diameter hole = 1.417 in2 to bleed from

2-.312" diameter holes = 1.961 in2 to bleed from

I'll still take my 10mm

11-.400" diameter holes = dead attacker
