I'm starting to have a little more respect for .22 than I used to. I won't penetrate a whole lot, but hit flesh with it and it will do a lot of damage. It's dirt cheap to buy and stockpile and a lot of fun to shoot. I have three .45's and honestly, I'm afraid to shoot them at the range anymore. The ammo is just too expensive and I already feel very competent with all three of mine. I think I may just go qualify once a year to make myself feel good. But I'll be shooting .22 a lot more at the range these days. I have a 1906 Winchester pump .22, which is a hoot and I have a Walther P-22 for the wife. My 10/22 needs a bipod and some more hi-cap. mags to be my home perimeter Gatling gun.
