You made a statement based on my posts, plural. Pick the caliber you like best.

My neighbors are close and my family is closer. The .45 acp with hollowpoints has a 88% one shot stop rating from the Texas Dept of Safety. They tested quite a few calibers when they went through a selection process.

They chose the .357 sig based on its increased penetration. This was important for cops as they tend to shoot through car doors and windows and need the extra power.

Its simple common sense, the .357 and .44 both have higher muzzle velocity and energy than the .45. Their wound channels are also larger and much deeper. In one test I saw the .44 penetrated over 20” of ballistics gel. The .45 had between 9 and 12 inches.

Again, common sense tells ya that if the target doesn’t stop the bullet it will keep going. I choose not to endanger my neighbors or family members.

Just because you asked me for an example doesn’t mean I’m going to run out and find one for you. I’m not your lacky to order around.

I did not respond to your post(s). I responded to your post (singular) number 2. Go back and look. Since you can't read very well, perhaps you shouldn't even have a gun around the house. If you mistake one of your family for an intruder because you can't see, the caliber you use probably will not make much difference.

I am not your lackey either. You were the one that first suggested I do a Google search. I simply asked you to give me an example of the collateral damage you are so concerned about, and you could not. It's not because you don't want to be my lackey that you don't provide even one example, it's because you have none.
