The data concerning center fire pistol cartridges parallels the observation that those cartridges perform quite similarly in ballistic gel.
But comparing .22 to, say, 9 mm and .45, we see that the .22 outperforms common center fire cartridges in percent of hits that are fatal, average number of rounds to incapacitation, and percent incapacitated by a hit to the head or torso. The discontinuity between those findings and other observations gives reason to call in to question the methods of the study and/or analysis. The raw data of this publication could lead less discerning people to conclusions that I for one would consider potentially dangerous.
