Hence why I'd rather 3 extra rounds and reduced recoil.

Mehhh. One shot in the chest from a .300 win mag will probably be more effective than 3 FMJ's out of a .25acp in the chest. Stopping power is a very real thing, you just typically can't get it from a handgun. The ones that generate enough horsepower are huge and generally not loaded with bullets designed for humans.
