This video has content from other channels, I will post the ones I know in the notes. This is simply to make my point that with modern ammunition that "killing ability" between these calibers is, for the most part, the same. I know that a bigger bullet makes a bigger hole, I get that. But with modern ammunition they all will get it done.
Note: I put the frames of Larry Potterfield from Midway USA and his Concealed Carry Gun test in the video because he makes a big deal in his scoring for choosing a carry gun. Now I respect Mr. Potterfield's opinion, he knows a lot about guns from being in the industry forever, however he give the G22 an 80 point advantage in the "time to first hit" category because it take .3 or so seconds longer for him to get the shot off on the Glock 17 than it does the Glock 22. The weapon systems are EXACTLY the same size, weight, sight radius. EVERYTHING! But I put this in the video (with no sound, just me talking) because it shows that the recoil from the .40S&W is enough to cause him to miss a shot off his 10" plate at 20'. THIS IS MY POINT, the recoil from the high pressure rounds is enough to make accurate shots harder and you are not gaining anything by carrying a .40 or .357 over the 9mm other than more recoil. The gel doesn't lie, all of the calibers are good enough to kill.
