harry gilbert said:"More powerful" and "stopping power" are not exactly the same thing. Stopping power involves energy, penetration, and expansion. Note that energy level of 9mm is about twice that of .380 auto. Given the same bullet profile and shot placement, which do YOU think would have more stopping power?
