Can a little larger bore, like the 9MM offer more knock down power and less noise vs a .22 LR? I suppose that would depend on the round used.

Just asking, not trying to advise.
As I understand it, it's all about the kinetic energy carried by the bullet and how much of that energy can be transferred into the target.
