Which do you prefer?
I like stopping power more, same effect as double tap, just uses less ammom.

I guess in a way, both are equal. Although, with double tap on an automatic ensures quite a quick kill. Stopping power just as you say is good... It really goes to personal preference on this one. I use stopping power.

Well, Double Tap kills slightly faster. So if you have DT and run into a guy with SP, you'll win. The exact multipliers I forget though.

In CoD4, I definitely would have used Stopping Power. I would have to reload way too often. However, with dual mags in this game, it changes things up a little. Putting DT on will make it like dual mags aren't on, plus Bandolier is a must, however the trade off is it gives you an advantage verse others.

I personally use Stopping Power though.

Ya, I like double tap with the Bar, and DP-28.

Or, what (^)above(^) said, it with a dual mag is great!

Depends which gun you use, they have different rates of fire.
BAR Double Tap vs PPsh Stopping power. BAR will have no chance.

Well, thats only if you both fire at the exactly same time..

Yeah, that's what (I think) I said. The player with DT will win should it be same gun/same time/etc. However, a better player with SP will obviously win. Still, the advantage of DT is there, just negligible.

Or a ppsh double tap.

My friend uses that. It's so fun just to watch the killcam in our private matches
And speaking of PPsh, is it good without Stopping Power? Cause I'm thinking of making an Overkill class with the PTRS cause it can still kill fairly easily without SP, and the PPsh will fit the whole Russian theme, plus I'm not a big fan of using the MP40 unless it's Final Fight or something.

stopping power. especially since my fav is a ppsh-41. also double tap doesnt work on pistols or rifles

It works on snipers and shotguns though. Shoots the second shot faster

It does work on the M1 Garand and StG.

also, Double Tap doesn't have any effect on the PPSh in the console versions of the game.

Back to the main question, i prefer Stopping Power, mainly because i use Rifles and Bolt Actions so Double Tap doesn't really benefit me, it just gives away my position after firing 2 shots, I'd rather fire 1 shot and kill them straight away. Although is pretty much ONLY use Camo now (Except for class 6 and 7) since i play HCTDM and Domination. Although if my gun has a suppressor i might still add Double Tap for a bit of fun.

depends, sometimes I like the STG flash hider with double tap on S&D - more bullet spread and works well with fast reflexes

Stopping power
Double tap is useless with rifles, stopping power works with everything.

Question: Does Double Tap even work on the ppsh-41?

Yes
