Haven’t done a side by side test by my own hand, but I’ve gone up against other shooters using their 9mm. Mine is a full size, so that would make quite a difference. I’m just one of the old school guys I guess as far as calibers go.
On a side note, I recently bought a 45-70 Marlin 6 in the tube rifle heh. I call it the family rifle, it’s what I will be carrying around while we go hiking etc.
A co-worker has a 45-70....he loves it.
