Well, shut my mouth. Seems this guy did testing with some HD rounds that will only hit people one room over, which is an improvement over currently available pistol and 12 gauge HD options:

Thanks to all for some interesting reading.
The .300 Whisper always intrigued me for a fun cartridge but lacked utility for my applications. I still might have to get a .300 BLK just for fun.
Thanks to RobS for asking the questions to which I am interested in hearing the answers.
For me the downside to having a .300 BLK would be having it in the truck if I needed reach. My 16 inch 5.56 actually has decent reach for a little gun when fed the right ammo.
As to any real gain in terminal performance I have to say the 5.56 kills everything I would use the .300 BLK on so well it would be hard to see any improvement, dead right there is dead right there. This includes deer and antelope.
I was in a course/ briefing/ meeting where someone was using the work of Dr Roberts to justify why they were using the cheapest ammunition available to issue as their duty load. I'm being vague in an effort to be nice as I have a habit of evidently hurting feelings.
People are willing to take the work of an expert, and skew it to reach their own needs. Sometimes it is intentional, other times it is because the basis of knowledge isn't present, or the context of what is presented is limited.
