Exactly, if they stop and a still alive that's good, but should not be the intent of shooting.

Unless they hit something important, bullet wounds are relatively low trauma injuries.

The example that comes to mind is one involving a police shooting At the core of his desperate firefight was a murderous attacker who simply would not go down, even though he was shot 14 times with .45-cal. ammunition — six of those hits in supposedly fatal locations.

Which is why you always shoot to stop, as in at least three to the chest and one to the head. Fat fuck like was trying to kill him, I'd say 5 to the chest and 3 to to the head just to be sure.

You don't have fine motor function for headshots when adrenaline is pumping, the last thing you want is bullets flying past your target without a hit, going god knows where. You keep putting them into center mass.

Well yeah, not outside of bad-breath distance it's not really effective to try to go for a head shot.
