“How much cranial-bone is required to stop a 0.22LR fired from a handgun?”

I’ve killed quite a few deer with them. Close up head shots... of course I’ve wrestled a few that were not quite dead and got the crap kicked out of me.

Funniest one was a big doe that I threw in the back of my old 1983 Plymouth Horizon hatchback. The back seat was down so I could fit it in. I wrapped a plastic grocery bag around the head so the blood would not get on the interior carpet.

A couple of miles down the road I heard a snorting sound and looked in the rear view mirror to see the plastic grocery bag banging against the ceiling as the doe was trying to stand up, but the ceiling was too low.

I finished it off with a tire iron..... that was close enough. Thought I would need to change my pants after that one.

Are you perhaps, in Michigan?

I grew up there and it was [to my recollection] the only State that allowed pistol hunting of deer.
I have grand-recollections of stalking down deer with a hand-gun in the swamps of SoMichigan.

You’re lucky that deer didn’t bite you on the neck and then corner you in a phone booth.
