Hi, Im a bit of a noob here, so forgive any faults!
Had this thought, I wanted to see others swing at it.
Lets see how you compare your carry round to 22lr.
How many 22s would it take to equal the effectiveness of a 9mm or your carry round. A signal 22lr doesn't compare to a 9mm, but what about a double or triple tap? A triple tap is about the same ft lbs as a 9mm. It would be over multiple softer impacts instead of one large one. Perhaps its an improvement? KEEP IN MIND this is a stressful situation and shot placement would likely be less than ideal.
My question is how many 22lrs on target would you be comfortable replacing one shot of a carry caliber?
I would be on the fence with 3 Im thinking 4 would be better than 1 9mm.
