Hello,
I was wondering if there was any credible data on the effectiveness of various handgun calibers in real world scenarios. I'm aware of statistics compiled in the 1980's that I understand have since been found inaccurate. Even if it were granted that they were accurate, much has changed since then as far as bullet technology is concerned.
My reason for asking is a conversation that I had with an older gentleman who was adamant that a certain caliber many times more effective that another, citing data from some old police study.
I DO NOT want personal conjecture or anecdotes about your great uncles cousins nephew who is a self proclaimed youtube expert on the subject.
Thanks.
