Discussion Firearm vs night-night

[SweptAway]

Hello, I'm curious about anyone's opinions on CTB via firearm (9×19mm Parabellum) or the night-night method. Which method is most reliable? From what I've read one should aim upward from the rear base of the skull, although I'm not certain on that.

Any input would be appreciated,
Thanks

From what I know, the firearm will be the most likely method to succeed. Do proper research about it, surely there will be already a lot of threads about it

If you don't feel like going there and want a TL;DR, 9mm is basically the bare minimum, and the place one should aim to hit is the medula oblongata/brainstem. Someone in that thread suggested putting the gun barrel in one's mouth and aiming upwards at a 20 degree angle, however I cannot remember who wrote it nor have I personally checked the angle to see if it would aim where I would want to hit.
Also, in case you are unaware, Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP) bullets are ideal due to expanding, which causes more damage, whereas plain old FMJ bullets will just go right through, causing less damage.
