[QUOTE="criticalbass, post: 1037782, member: 711"] .25 has a horrible reputation in the gun community. The coroner's information would likely not include what the victim may have been capable of accomplishing after being shot with that, or a .22. Certainly a well placed shot from anything can be instantly disabling, and a little gun is a whole lot better than a harsh word, but there are .380s not much larger than the usual .25 offerings. Even with those, I recommend ball only for adequate penetration. Back to the original intent of the thread, my recommendation is the .40 because of ammo availability, less flash, less over penetration, and I suspect more reliable feeding (maybe I'm wrong, but bottleneck cartridges seem to present the occasional problem).
