"...If you need more than 6 shots, then you're better off using a machine gun because your aim sucks..."

I know of two different CHP officers who put six rounds of what used to be called the "Treasury Load," a 110 gr HP, +P+ .38 spl into badguys without stopping him. One BG multi-officers then swarmed, the other officer, while getting his bell run with a ball peen hammer, pulled out a 2" .38 and put two more rounds in center of mass. The bad guy then stated something like "hey, you shot me," dropped the hammer, and sat down. Neither died. That load was considered to be a pretty hot load too...
