Well I guess the faster the better huh? Clearly this round fragments too much and penetration is not considered acceptable by the scientifically backed measure of the FBI’s testing protocols. Why not crank that round up another few hundred FPS so it’ll totally blow up in the first few inches of tissue? Then we’ll be sure it won’t reach vital organs and the CNS! Who needs to destroy those when seconds count when we can make a nasty, shallow flesh wound??

I guess you know more than the FBI on the subject of wound ballistics... of course you do, this is the internet after all.
The 115gr +P+ may not be the best option today. Gold Dots, HST, and many other modern rounds may be far more capable. But that doesn't change the fact that 115 +P+ earned a reputation on the street as a very effective round.
