i agree on the .22lr as a poor defensive round, but if that is all you have then i would say its better than nothing. as far as standard or high velosity, if it was me i would use cci velositor becouse its 40gr. and velocity of 1435fps. aguila interceptor is 40gr. 1470fps. thats probably the best i could throw at a suspect in a home defense situation.
