Thanks for the reply, Keith. I feared that was the answer that I was going to get and one of the main reasons that I've stayed with just the shotgun this long. I've had #6 shot in it.

It is interesting in the link that you provided that air marshalls are issued a Sig .357s with JHPs. I would have guess that the .9mm had less punch for a confined area but I that shows how much I don't understand.

I'm trying to keep this topics separated so that I don't cause confusion. For a background, please check the post labeled "CHL and RVs"

I picked a Sig 250 9mm loaded with 147g JHPs as my carry. One of my major concerns if I ever had to use it was how far the bullet might travel. It is one thing to visually check the area behind a BG in the open and I'm fine with that. It is another to have to deal with that same BG inside an RV. In case you are not familiar with them, RVs have very thin walls, usually made of fiberglass. There is not much in the way of insulation, etc. to even slow a bullet down. We generally are in State Parks where your RV neighbors could be 50 feet on any side of you.

Let's assume that if I shot inside the RV, I didn't miss. How much further is a JHP round likely to go?

Sorry if this is a stupid question.
