From the book "Holloway's Raiders", [I][B]" In the 36 shotgun gunfights, 31 criminals were hit. Eighteen of those criminals died from their wounds. Only five of the 31 people shot required more than one round to neutralize. That means 25 out of 31 stopped after being hit with a single shotgun round."[/B][/I] And from Ellfritz's 2011 study of handgun stopping power, [I][B]An 81% “one shot stop” rate is quite enviable.
