You are right, shot placement (center mass) is the key and is more important than caliber choice. Does Florida have the Castle Doctrine like Ohio does?
Exactly right, it WAS Critical Defense. I use Federal HST's but will look at the Gold Dots you mention.

Florida has a castle doctrine as well as a car doctrine basically stating a no retreat rule as well as legal right to assume lethal force if anyone enters your house or tries to enter your car. In other words, if someone enters your house or car, shoot. Liberals haven't ruined that.
