I just got a 22 cal long rifle and I know 22 are deadly like anygun but really are weak in tems of guns.
22 cal are low velocity rounds... 1260 feet per second
and only carry 130 foot lbs of energy
while a 30-06 may be 3300-4500 feet per second and carry 4000 ft lbs of energy
A 22 is adequit to kill a person, I've heard that a lot of snipers use them, obviously not the military, they use 50 cal
But a deer is rated as being the same size game as a person and were shooting them with rounds that pack 4000 lbs of energy
most cops carry 9mm which only carry 400 ft lbs
so what's the deal???
