Actually 22 rimfire is quite lethal. It penetrates well and has a tendency to bounce around a bit. It would be my weapon of choice in a Walking Dead world. Very little report. Highly accurate. Deadly in a simple head shot. And you can carry thousands of rounds with very little weight...

Lots of people killed with .22 rimfire in the U.S.

Lots of big game killed with .22 rimfire as well, though mostly illegally in the U.S.

Indeed. I was referring more to the description of being struck in the arm and then traveling into the chest cavity. That’s quite a journey, although I could see in some situations that being a straight line. For example, if the criminal was using that arm to point a weapon at the young man. I guess that was probably the case.

So...someone breaks into your home, you shoot him in the hand but the bullet travels up his arm and into his chest cavity and the intruder dies, and you get charged with capital murder?

No, the accomplice of the unlamented dead criminal is the one to be charged.

You’re quite wrong

Had it been an ought six I’d have been smoked

22 is good to grab the good stuff
