of what a given load can do as a "manstopper". exactly NOBODY has such experience, on adrenalized men, with the same load and pistol. So NOBODY's opinion is or ever was, based upon a valid body of evidence. Plenty of evidence exists to prove that Evan Marshal just MAKES UP his bs as he goes along. The same way the "veterans" make up THEIR bs war stories.
stopping or not stopping a man is a "2 possible outcome' scenario, like getting heads or tails when tossing a coin. It takes a MINIMUM of 20 coin tosses to establish that the correct odds are 50%, ie, pure LUCK, of getting heads. So it takes at least 20 shootings, all chest hits now, to establish that what you saw was not just LUCK.
Gut hits are worthless, any hunter can testify to that fact. there is nothing in the stomach or intestines that will cause an animal or a man to stop quickly. so fully HALF of the "torso" hit stories are meaningless, even if accurately reported (ha ha) because HALF of the "torso" is guts.
