I once lived in a converted shop behind a house. One of the guys who lived in the house saw my .30-06 and asked "If you get a burglar, are you going to shoot him with that?" I said "No, that's what the pistol's for. If I shot him with this, it could go through him, through the wall, through your wall, through you, out the other wall and maybe kill someone across the street!"

A bit of an exageration, but not worth finding out how close to the truth it might be.
