How much time between the first and last shot? I suspect this may be the issue here, but I don’t pretend to know.

Personally, I'd be okay if he reloaded twice in the process of stopping this violent thug from beating a girl. Legally, as long as the criminal was still standing or moving in a potentially threatening manner, as a juror I'd be okay with continuing to shoot until the threat is stopped. As the shooter, I'd responsibly stop as soon as the immediate threat to my life or safety or to that of another was stopped.

Changing your reply to how I would do it.
