>22 short. Adequate for self defense at close range, like across a card table.>22LR. Adequate for general self defense and for deer hunting with good shot placement.>25ACP. Same as 22LR but reliable in an autolader.>32ACP. The all arounder. Good for self defense and police/duty use. >380ACP. Hits like a brick through a window. Good if you feel the need to compensate for something.>9mm. War time submachine gun round designed to penetrate soft armor at 50+ meters. Overpowered for defense. >45ACP. Literally designed for cavalry to drop a horse at 100 yards.>357MAG. Elk hunting round that destroys the gun. Has no advantage other than that the heavy gun makes 38 special more controllable.What changed since then?
