In all of our shootings from 1980 to 1988, one hit from the 357 Federal 357B 125 grain JHP stopped the action. We carried a mix of 4" barreled 357s. Oddly, misses with that round were completely ineffective.

An officer of ours who was disarmed and fatally wounded returned fire with his 38 back-up snubbie and killed his killer with one chest hit by the 158 grain +P LHP.
