This video features Tim Schmidt and Michael Martin from the USCCA discussing firearm stopping power. They explain why the traditional kinetic energy formula (1/2MV²) is insufficient and advocate for using the Taylor Knockout Factor (TKOF = MVD/7,000) as a more accurate measure, developed by John "Pondoro" Taylor. The TKOF accounts for projectile geometry, which kinetic energy neglects. The video emphasizes choosing ammunition that is affordable for practice and encourages viewers to share their preferred carry ammunition in the comments.
