Well then we should battle our pocket animals on day Rock. I carry a 13.5 lb bobcat concealed daily just in case my pistol fails.

!
I'll put my chihuahua against your bobcat any day! He's a mean sum-b*tch!

Throw down the gauntlet.

That's a little harsh... you take the word "instigation" to a whole new level... "immenstigation".

That whole website is one of my favorite resources... that diagram is one of the reasons that I carry 9mm Doubletaps @ 1320 f.p.s. when I carry a 9mm instead of a .40.

It should more closely resemble the .357 Sig at that velocity.

The FBI study linked in your link (http://www.firearmstactical.com/pdf/fbi-hwfe.pdf) is one of the best studies I have ever read on this topic. If anyone here isn't familiar with it, give it a read for sure.

I have been carrying a pissed off raccoon, but he has grown used to it and has lost some of his ferocity....thinking of going to the 16lb armadillo...I can hold him by the tail and swing him.....like THOR's Hammer!

on the other side...I have some Ranger ammo and some Gold dots.....I may try them...just kinda got used to carrying (and trusting) the hydra shocks....just really looking for the nastiest bad guy stopper out there....

The hydrashock is a dated round. The new HST is a much better round from Federal.
