I'm sorry you don't like the test, it's always kind of a drag when real world results don't support the theory. Granted a single test doesn't prove that the same results will occur every time, but it does prove that the results observed can occur.



And I'll take the advantage of that "miniscule" difference every time because I may well not have the time to take advantage of the additional round count. Otherwise I'd just use a .22 pistol with 110 rounds available in a single mag.



Kind of a drag when a real world example of "stopping power" fails too.

So.... If capacity was limited (can only carry 10 rounds), would you still choose 9mm?

Considering I frequently carry a Kahr (7+1) and just recently started carrying a .38 LCR, then sure, I will take the round I am more accurate with and have quicker follow up shots while retaining very similar down range performance. But since this is the real world I prefer my G19 more often than not with the excess capacity.
