In theory a bigger bullet is better. But in the end, they are handgun rounds and all of them have been known to succeed and fail. One isn't better than the other.

In guns the same size and weight, I can put 4 or 5 effective hits on target with a 9MM faster than most people can with a larger caliber.

And I don't buy this "Has to start with a 4" BS. It only shows the lack of understanding of how handgun calibers perform.

I tried the 40. Had several of them. I wasn't impressed. But it is purely a personal decision. Whatever you choose, make it work for you and move on.
