    There isn’t a chance that a .22LR would even leave a bruise at 300m, if you managed to deal with the 15 or 20’ of drop at that range. You might as well throw a shoe at him.

    Cmon, let’s get these people using the right equipment for the job. Telling people that .22 is going to do the job is just making sure the job doesn’t get done.

    The best kill is overkill.

      Oh crap, you’re right. Effective range 140 yard.

      .270 or 30-06 it is then.

      Edit: one of our politicians had a dido thrown at him. Ill keep my shoe.

      Look, I like to shit on the 22 as much as the next guy but at 500 yards it absolutely could kill. It’s not the most effective at that range but it will do more than bruise.

            It’s pretty majestic, all-in-all. Shoe chucker had great aim, Bush was just lucky to have seen that he was up to something and then, yeah, demonstrated pretty good reflexes for his age by evading it. AC 0 vs. shoe projectiles.

      You would have to be a incredible shot but a 22 lr will still fuck you up or kill you at that range. It’s always foolish to act like a 22 is a toy round not to be taken seriously.
