I’m sorry, the .223/5.56X45 round and the M-16/M4/whatever is not a suitable round or weapon for stopping people. The US Mil admin were dumb asses for adopting it, and (after many years of poor performance by both weapon and cartridge) the police were dumb asses to follow their folly. Stupid is as stupid does!
If you want to stop a man shoot him/her with 7.62X51 at minimum. Otherwise piss your pants and shoot them again (and again) 
. A 7.62X51 will at the very least knock an armored man down. A 5.56X45 will bounce off an armored target. Don’t believe it? Look up the ballistic/energy tables at any ammo mfgr’s website.
7.62X51 will do, but I like 30-06 and .300 Win Mag for serious game, particularly the two footed variety 
.
