    People need to understand statistics and mathematics before making these statements.

    .22 is involved in more shootings, this does not mean it is a more effective round. One needs to look at the percentage of deaths incurred by a caliber, not the total quantity.

    Also, it does not mean it is more effective at stopping the threat. The way a .22 can bounce around inside the body (re: Reagan), it can cause internal bleeding which can lead to death. But bleed out leaves the threat capable for several minutes.

    Sure a well placed shot can kill anything, including in a self defense scenario. But under the stress of an attack, fine motor skills normally degrade. Shot placement becomes a challenge when adrenaline is pumping, the heart is beating so hard you can hear it in your ears, emotions are sky high, etc.
    you made my point......22LR is a killer

    Well, the perp was in the process of showing his advanced combat style when the homeowner just got tired and decided to put an end to his nonsense.
