For me....99% of the time I carry a 1911 in .45 acp ....( with 8 + 1 )....so 9 rounds is plenty ....and once in a while I'll carry a Sig 239 in .40S&W ( with 7 + 1 ) ....and once in a while I'll carry a K frame revolver in .357 mag with 6 rounds...( so for me, 6 to 9 rounds is plenty )....

( and I shoot 10 - 12 boxes a week ...for Tactical practice / so I'm pretty confident in my ability to put shots on target - fairly quickly and "tactically accurate" which I think is center chest ( nipple to nipple -- and down to belly button in a rectangle )...

I practice mostly because I like shooting ...and maintaining my skills with handguns ...

In my opinion - its Defense !! .../ not a shootout at the OK Corral.../ statistically, it'll be over very quickly with only a few rounds fired.
