This statement does not make sense as frangible 45 ammo isn't any better than using birdshot.
How do you figure that? Frangible pistol ammo is specifically designed for situations where the chances of overpenetration are high. They're made to pass through soft targets (like bad guys) and disintegrate when they contact hard ones (like doors, walls, etc)
Bird shot, on the other hand has none of those characteristics, while possessing questionable man-stopping capabilities.
If number 4 or 6 will kill a pheasant at 45 yards, then I would suspect at HD distances, it will perform admirably, especially into the face, neck, groin or knee area
No offense, but I'm going to need a little more evidence of bird shot being an effective man-stopper than the fact that it'll drop an animal the size of a house cat.
