Deer, antelope, really? Maybe you should try actually reading Elmer Keith before making comments?And Elmer Keith was shooting large and relatively tough animals, not smaller and relatively weak humans.
I guess I have to spell it out. The studies are flawed. Any study predicated on determining the percentage of gun fights ended with those magical one shot stops; not to mention relying on data procured from 3rd party sources involved in what is one of the most stressful situations a human can find themselves in; coupled with the opinions of medical workers not educated on the subject of terminal ballistics, who are focused on saving the victim's life, rather than determining the terminal effect of a given load, is automatically and fundamentally flawed. Yeah, I put more faith in information gleaned from actual experience in the hunting fields. Feel free to disagree, it's a free country.
Let me simplify it for the theorists:
Bigger bullets = bigger holes = quicker incapacitation, man or beast.
I'm done with the theorists.
