[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2918706, member: 5412"] If someone is wearing a leather coat or several layers of clothing, the .22 anything may have issues. Velocity as has been reported is way lower than the advertised number coming from a pistol. User beware. It doesn't matter if you can put 10 rounds in quick order into the center mass if it can't penetrate to the vitals. Obese individuals with nothing other than a tshirt have been shot with a .22lr with zero effect. OKC news did a report of a drive by shooting where a guy took a .22 round to the gut, and was standing there talking to a reporter waiting on an ambulance. He was laughing it off. If I were going to use a .22 for home defense, it would be to train for face shots. [/QUOTE]
