70. Less Lethal, is good but...
If you are using less lethal, then you'd better be sure it works. If you miss, he has a bulletproof vest on, or for some reason it doesn't work. You are in BIG trouble. You should only use a gun when you need to protect your life or someone elses. When the situation gets to that point, less lethal is less than what you need.

I've seen guys (especially in winter) take 4 or 5 less lethal rounds and not even slow down. I've never seen (or heard of) anyone who took more than one round from a shotgun and kept attacking (I've even seen people wearing vests get taken down with a shotgun)

If you are going to protect your life, don't try and save the other guys, he's already decided your life isn't worth protecting.
