What "size" .22? Magnum rounds can kill a person but in the house discharging it would cause the instant ear ringing and nothing will be heard again for a while. Even a LR is loud. There is benefit to maintaining your hearing.

Can a little larger bore, like the 9MM offer more knock down power and less noise vs a .22 LR? I suppose that would depend on the round used.

Just asking, not trying to advise.
