Actually...
a .45 ACP has a high 90's% stop rate on the first hit. The problem is that some people are too ignorant to know when they are dead, and they keep on keeping on until the brain no longer can sustain them due to lack of oxygen. Needless to say, this moment of terminal revelation comes much quicker if they get one through the heart, or through the brain stem.
I carry a Glock 30 as my EDC, and an XDs as my BUG pocket gun...both .45 cal. However, I also love my XDm 9mm and have carried it a lot. It may not have the first hit stopping power...but I have 13 other rounds behind the first to put the period at the end of the sentence. I choose to not carry smaller than a 9mm, but I understand new technology is producing some outstanding 380 ammo.
