If you believe at that momment that a life is in mortal danger
Neutralize the threat
IE shoot till the threat is neutralized.
thats way we have 15, 17, 20 round mags.

Re: A good summary of "knockdown power"
At last! I couldn't agree more. The fallacy that the bigger the bullet the better is nonsense. It stems from an american notion that the bigger the thing is the better. Like hummers and .45's. Unless you place it, it means nothing. A 9mm hollow point will do more damage than a .45. Its simple maths, the more energy transfered to the targets body the more damage! A .45 that wizzes through transfers less energy than a 9mm hollow that comes to a complete halt in the body of the target - FACT! Anyone who disagrees has not done grade 8 science.
