    Default Overall what is the most popular self defense round?

    Overall what is the most popular competition and self defense round in the USA/Canada?

    Is it the 45acp, is it the 9mm, is it 40 cal. Could it be 38spl, maybe the tried and true 357 magnum. What about the 380?

    From what I gather over seas the 380 is pretty popular and the 9mm is proven military round. I eliminated the 38 super because its only popular in competition.

    Overall which is the most popular round? We are talking most used not most effective a man stopper. That is another debate.

    I'd say 40 cal but with competition events (training/reloading/practice) included maybe its the 45acp?

    Most citizens and regular LEO sit on there ammo like eggs once a month range time. If that.

    What do you guys think?

    9mm hands down.....i dont think any of the others will even come close in production numbers in the past 20 years.
