    Thumbs up the right caliber....

    A manstopper is a generic term used to describe almost any combination of firearm and ammunition that can reliably be expected to incapacitate, or "stop" a human target immediately. For example, the .45 ACP pistol round and the .357 Magnum revolver round have a firm reputation as "manstoppers"

    So if I put a .22 short about 3" above the tip of your nose, you wouldn't stop?

    Sorry, we're not going to have the "which caliber is better" discussion again, especially when the first post is just a rhetorical statement.
