You must have Black Talon ammunition in order for 9mm to do that.
40 and 45 acp just cant make the cut.

It takes so long to get there, one can simply step to the left or right and watch that bullet bounce on by.
I understand now. You're referring to the 9mm velocity compared to a 45's. Smaller diameter travelling a bit faster. And though both calibers have their own unique virtues, in close quarter defense, I'll take my 45 over a 9mm. More expandable mass being more destructive with one shot. Plus, you gotta shoot twice as many 9mm at 115 gr as a 230 gr 45 to get the same amount of lead into the target. So 15 in the stack vs 8 is equal.

So 15 hits is the same as 8 hits?

You might want to catch up on todays bullet technology, you really dont give up much at all between 9,40 and 45 acp.
Never saw a 9mm bounce off a forehead, ive seen 45 acp do it.
