Okay, I finally watched the last episode.
Spoiler!
I think the obvious two options are 1) bulletproof vest or 2) wounded. They're not going to kill her off. I don't think it was a set-up; if they faked it, obviously the Big Man they're after would know (I mean, if he didn't sanction it, who the hell would be trying to kill her?). Besides, they already pulled that trick on "Bones" in an early season. She may have been wearing a bulletproof vest on her own, but that wouldn't account for the tears or the "oh shit I'm dying" look on her face. (Unless it was a huge-caliber bullet that she hadn't planned on.) So I'll go with the "wounded" theory, which fits in nicely if they decide she doesn't remember Castle saying he loved her. (Or, actually, the way they write this show... she'll SAY she didn't remember it, but in reality she does.)
One thing that annoyed me is that they've already pulled the "Beckett's dead!" ruse (which is how this thread got started in the first place, with her apartment getting blown up). I think a much better ending would've been if Castle jumped in front of her and took the bullet, and then SHE told HIM she loves him (which would've dovetailed nicely with his speech to her earlier in the episode about how she's afraid of committing to a relationship). I think that would've worked much better, and they dropped the ball on this one.
