      9 vs 45 and confirmation bias

      A few years back I settled on 9mm for my SD/HD needs, after determining that the performance of specific premium JHP ammo was more than adequate, and the advantages in capacity and lower recoil more than made up for any disadvantages in terminal ballistics.
