[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 1568546, member: 18914"] Putting the round on the (right part of the) target matters most for typical civilian encounters for self-defense. There are also practical matters of effective concealment of your weapon and the economics of ammo (9mm is cheap because the military market has manufacturers tooled to produce billions of rounds). All the other stuff is extrapolation and assumption - take your preference. Why not .41 magnum? Its a great round so if you like it knock yourself out but I find the 9mm is a good all-around mix of capability and cost. If I want a lot more power I probably need a long gun. [/QUOTE]
