[QUOTE="Erick, post: 1551546, member: 11535"] The ability of the round that makes an assailant say "never mind" when struck by said projectile. I think it is slightly subjective so sometimes I like to think it extremes. When shot by a 300WSM a person is more likely to by incapacitated than when hit with a .22lr. So, I would say the 300WSM has more stopping power. I would prefer a .45 over any other round personally. I like the recoil and the confidence I get with the round. However, my carry gun is a .40 s&w. For a concealed gun sometimes you have to sacrifice preferred caliber for capacity. For my H&K USP Compact, I get 12+1 in the .40 as opposed to 8+1 in the .45. It's worth it to me to have 4 extra rounds of what I consider a less preferred caliber. I could have gone one more step and went with the 9mm but I didn't think adding one round was worth it.
