[QUOTE="nmbarta, post: 1794981, member: 78438"] Some of this is just getting silly. Shooting deer in the ***? On purpose? You can kill a blue whale with a .22lr alright? You can kill a grasshopper with nuke. You can kill an elk with a .223 or a grizzly with a 9mm. You can kill just about anything with any gun. It doesn't make it a good idea, but it can be done. There are better options for different applications. Doesn't matter to which bullet, it's a .22, if I'm shooting a deer with a .22 I'm shooting it in the head, but I'll never do that, because I won't be hunting deer with a .22. I've watched a few great bucks walk that never gave me shot, well they gave me a shot, just not a shot I wanted to take. I have zero doubt I could have killed them and recovered them, but an animal that I don't want to eat isn't worthy of my wall. I don't like to eat gut shot animals, they taste......funny, and that ain't funny. [/QUOTE]
