Obviously, the increased velocity will impact terminal ballistic performance. Just ask yourself one question. Plus, law enforcement, judges, and the average person usually see revolvers as less threatening than a high capacity auto-loader. Most shootouts are long range. .308.

I would like to add that the FBI test comparisons that are referred to are only half the test. If I did, I would either aviod the area or take a rifle. Not ever. Equipped with a suppressor, they make ideal home defense weapons and they are less likely to over-penetrate. The 1911 has a 3.3" barrel and is also small. If either 5.56 x 45 or 7.62 x 51 are using hollow points or soft points the damage will be greater. Time matters. So much quicker to re-aim, quicker to re-fire and hence more accurate.

The 9mm had a very distinct and predictable step in every load tested. I LIKE them all. I have to say I like them all from 22 to 500 Smith. In fact, if one conducts these tests, one finds that there is nothing that can be observed which supports the assertion that the faster one drives non-expanding solids the deeper they penetrate.Despite all the impressive "science" deployed to reinforce the assertion that higher speed projectiles are more capable of inflicting the deep penetration and impact-effect required to reliably anchor heavy game, one finds that these assertions simply do not withstand common sense, repeatable penetration testing. The following data is sourced from Ballistics by the Inch. So .45 is the guarantee to punch big holes, with 9 you have to have the right conditions. ". During the EVAC of Vietnam, one VC was dusted with a .45 to the shoulder and he was DRTdead right there. I got rid of my .45 Auto carbine because I found it less effective beyond about 60 yards.
