    The article says the depth of penetration needs to be 12-18". I think that would mean a through hole in most people.

    Except for this 400-lb.+ guy I work with.....

    Best of both, worst of both.....I like 'em all.

    Considering alot LEOs don't have much practice shooting at more than a stationary piece of paper, then add the stress and adrenaline of the situation, no that number isn't surprising.

    But honestly, .380 is the best, by far all around cartridge........

    If the .45 was good enough for my grandfather on the beaches of Iwo Jima.... Good enough for my uncles in the jungles of the La Drang, Good enough for my brothers in the Korengal Valley....


    It's good enough for me.

    I like thinking I could do cross fit while eating potatoes riding my bike shooting my .380 at Toyota's.

Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"
