.22's are good up to a mile.

***.22's are good up to a mile. ***

They are dangerous up to a mile, but I can't make a consitant shot further out than 200 yards with one. You might be able to take a 1 mile shot with a .50 BMG. :) 22's loose a ton of energy beyond 100 yards, but you can shoot further than that. From the description of the wounds, it's probably not a .22 lr. Even if it was at point blank range it isn't likely to do that much damage.
