I won't vote on this because the correct choice is not there.
#1 as many have said placement is the most important criteria.
Only a CNS disconnect is 100%.
Which can you shoot well enough to guarentee a CNS disconnect?
#2 when you fail to make a CNS disconnect then caliber becomes a factor.
Power is an illusion. If you think that the "paper power" advertised by an
ammunition manufacturer means anything other than marketing hype, study
some physics.
What is relevant with a less than CNS disconnect hit is how quickly you can
lower blood pressure to zero.
A good 9mm can do a decent job of making the BG leak out.
A good 45 can do it too.
Which can reliably do it faster? Bigger holes pass liquid faster, more holes pass liquid faster.
By the way I would discount many of the so called studies. Until we can scientifically shoot identical BG's in identical places under identical distances, angles, clothing, circumstances and states of adrenalization (is that a word?) they are not reliable predictors of outcome. They can make some general reccomendations but those are expressed above.
