If it ain't a manstopper I'll be going to something bigger not smaller.

MoJo,
Did you read Gabe Suarez's story regarding such?
(a 12 gauge slug is approximately .72 caliber and in Gabe's story a bad guy was body hit at 2:00 O'clock with the slug exiting at 8:00 - He turned himself in a week later, somewhat worse for wear but obviously still alive)
His argument was shot placement is the key, cuz if .72 caliber doesn't do the job....

No, havent read Suarez' story. I have read many of Evan Marshall's and Mas Ayoob's accounts of success and failure of various ammunition in real life gunfights and saw a few my self while in Vietnam.
In gunfighting, as in real estate, it's Location, Location, Location.
