"Like what? An invasion of squirrels and cane toads?"

many deer are killed with .22lr. many people are killed with .22lr.

i killed many 8' gators with 1 shot of federal 550 bulk right through the scull. with a pistol. stopped them instantly.

shtf, people stock up on .22lr for when ak/ar ammo runs out. a team member with a .22 rifle can be very effective at suppressing the enemy while another member picks his shots with the 30-06. third member loading the empty mags for the .22 rifle. constant fire. with a few 3 man teams like this, looters don't stand a chance.

shtf. with no medical care, a hit with a .22lr will kill a looter immediately or days later from infection. one way or another he is out of the picture at some point.

shtf. its quiet. you can hunt and kill with a .22 rifle without alerting all looters within several miles.

i have found .22lr round nose to be much less effective on animals than .22lr hollow points. i call the federal 550 bulk a semi hollow point. it does not expand as much as other brand hollow points but it penetrates deeper and while the wound channel is a little smaller its much longer. it penetrates deeper than the hot and expensive cci velocitor this is the best of both worlds and i been buying every box i can find for years. the cci velocitor is better in my ruger lcr 22 though.
