    I got more 22's than you can shake a stick at. They are easy to handle, almost non-existant kick, can be used in a wide variety of situations, easy to carry lots of ammo and with my ruger 10/22 with the scope I can put 3 out of 3 in a 2" circle @ 100 yds.

    I've got a marlin model 60 and a ruger 10/22, the .22 LR is an awesome cartridge and I've shot one through a 4"x4" at an angle even, unfortunatly I don't have pics because that was a long time ago, but for its size the .22 is an impressive cartridge.

    I'd wager that 22s have dropped more game in this country than will ever be admitted to....

    Here are 3 rounds from our Ruger 10/22 with a 3x7 scope at 35 yds.
    I know it looks like 2 shots but trust me, it was 3. The circle on the target is 1/2 inch diameter.
    If you practice a lot and get confident with your skills, you could stop quite a lot with a 22.

    .... 35 yards with a scope? That should be one hole .... lightweight.

    As far as penetration goes, the 22LR is a formidable little round. Here is a little propane cylinder (empty of course) that I shot at 100yds.0605011141a.jpg0605011141.jpg

    getting shot at with anything.....including a .22lr.....is going to make me rethink my actions.
