When even my lite-weight 148HBWC loads ding and swing an 8" circle of 3/8" steel at 20-50 yards, I know I would not want to be standing on the wrong side.
I think I will stick to reading Massad Ayoob and his years of actual field experience.

I think too may conflict what they can shoot under ideal conditions on a flat range with what they can do in a dynamic event. Can you hit that 8" plate @ say 10y in 1.5sec from a holster, even from low ready? I would bet you a new J-frame most that carry theirs can not. If you can, that is great, but still doesn't remove the potential failure rate of any caliber in a fight.
