There's a similar thread going on elsewhere on this list regarding the relative merits of a small .22 (or .22 magnum) vs. the 32.

I'll repeat here what I said there -- and this parallels other comments here: if you're being attacked, have the adrenalin pumping, are moving, your target is moving, or must hit a relatively small target (such as the face, a small area of the chest) with .22 Quikshock ammo, you may just as well be whistling "Dixie" for all the good it will do you.

Hitting cabbages is one thing. Being scared to death, heart pumping, moving, trying to hit a moving target, etc., is quite different. A light weight projectile from a .22 is going to require PRECISE placement, and that simply may not be possible.

Give me a bigger caliber and a larger number of rounds. I want to improve the odds.
