Oh, so one shot does it.
Good to know.
I'll tell the military trainers.
Thanks.

This "study" cherry picked data, and did not control for significant variables, such as: 1. shooter training/experience level 2. age/sex/race/health of victim 3. number/placement of wounds 4. who fired first 5. number of rounds exchanged 6. range 7. duration 8. cover 9. time to receive/nature if medical care received etc. I see your point but you can't really have a scientific study about this sort of thing unless you want to start shooting people in staged circumstances. [insert liberal lawmaker joke here] The study analyzed data over five years. I think that's long enough to average data. They do kinda pick and choose what to weight but on the whole it's not bad. I say we put this issue to rest. I am going to need some volenteers, a lot of them. That said I think that what you have on you is better than what is home in your safe, and you need to know how to use it

Thanks. FMJ - military HP - not military. Make sure you also let them know.  I'm ex-military. I like how you continually chastise everyone for reaching uninformed conclusions on things they havent researched, yet render an off-the-cuff, happy-hour kind of conclusion, while admitting I haven't bothered to read the study . I'll stick with my military training, but thanks.

I'll stick with my military training, but thanks. Okay, well I've had basic physics college courses and studied some biology and wound care/treatment. I own a tape measure. I've shot bullets into things. I understand the rudamentary fundamentals that: .75" expanded bullet going 1100 fps does more damage to the body than a .45" expanded bullet going 800 fps, or a .30" expanded bullet going 1200 fps. If you need a study to tell you that, all things equal, one is more lethal than the other, then find. I don't really need a study to tell me these things...
